Some of my favorite things the kids have said lately …
While sitting around the table, the kids were practicing letters off of flashcards I was holding. One after the other, Nehemiah, “B!” Malachi, “B!” Sadie, “B!”. Another card, Nehemiah, “W!” Malachi, “W!” Sadie (without missing a beat), “I’m busy right now!”
One morning Malachi was helping me prepare a whole chicken in the crock pot and we talked about the bones of the chicken and the skin and so on. Later that day, Malachi touches his leg and asked, “Mama, are there chickens in my legs?” After I second I said, “Do you mean bones?”
Nehemiah, “We can share food because we are part of the same family, right Mom? But if someone is from another world, it wouldn’t be ok!”
Sadie was trying to finish eating her cheerios fast, “I’m eating like a cheddar!” Me, “Do you mean a cheetah?”
