Come into My World

Aidyn's prayer a few weeks ago:

"Dear Jesus, I'm sorry for all the bad things I do that got you killed. I want the Holy Spirit to come into my world and help me make better choices. Thanks. Amen."

Locked in a Box

Me: "Aidyn, please quit locking your cat in that box."

Aidyn: "Why?"

Me: "Well, would you like to be locked in a box?"

Aidyn: "But, I'm not a cat."


Point. Set. Match.

Mi Gato

**Disclaimer: I don't speak Spanish, so I'm just repeating what she said with spelling the best I could do."

Aidyn is doing really well at her dual language school. She is one of the top in her class and we've been told that she is a "natural" at learning a second language. We know. She was a natural at learning the first one, too!

The best part for me is when she randomly inserts Spanish into her conversations with us:

• "Mom, what's the word for 'trenti' in English?"


• "Papa, mi gato es bonita."


• "The word for bee? Abeja!"

It's so fun to watch her learn!

Option

"Well, I know. We could put Autumn's food and water and some toys in her box and she could play in there. It's an option."

Currently

"I currently remember that we used to have 'Chicka Chicka Uno Dos Tres.'"

Take Care of Tylenol

As she was getting herself ready for school this morning: "Ok, Mom. I need you to take care of Tylenol while I'm gone. I made lots of milk for her and put the bottles in the fridge last night. Watch out, too. She's really tired and she's been spitting up a lot. Think you'll be ok?" Yeah, I think I can handle it...

Seeing Eye...Sheep?

Randomly, in the car tonight:

A: "Mom, you know how there are blind people who have seeing eye dogs?"

M: "Yep."

A: "Well, what happens if the seeing eye dog is blind, too?"

M: "I'm not sure, kiddo. What do you think they could do?

A: "Well, maybe they could get a seeing eye cat? No....that wouldn't work. The dog would chase the cat. Maybe a seeing eye horse? No, the dog would probably get freaked out. Maybe a seeing eye sheep? No...the dog would eat it's wool. Maybe a seeing eye cow? No, because a cow makes milk and so it needs to stay on the farm. Maybe a seeing eye car. No, they would bump into things. And besides, that's super dangerous. I know what would work perfectly!! Another person to be the seeing eye dog!!"

Carried Away

Tonight at her Open House for Kindergarten, Aidyn was playing castle with some boys in her class. She was making her "castle guy" jump up and down and be very excited.

Aidyn: "Pretend he got really carried away."

Boy: "What's 'carried away'?"

Aidyn: "Um...I don't quite know how to explain it."

Drawing Mommy

Aidyn drew a picture of her family tonight for her teacher. She said, "Mommy, I can draw you better if you stay still. [then very seriously] I have no space for your nose."

Missed You

Me: "So, did you miss me while you were gone?"

Aidyn: "Well...in my head I missed you. But on the outside I didn't at all!!"
