Out of the mouths of babes...

I have to admit that I have a bit of a love/hate relationship with age three. There are those days when the independent streak is going strong and a bit of a sassy mouth can surface. Then there are those days when they say the sweetest things that melt your heart or have you peeing your pants. I love how unfiltered my little boy can be. He will tell you what he is thinking without pausing to rephrase. He is such a crack up! Here are a few of my favorite things that he does or says at this time.

From the time we brought Brooklyn home, we have always "spoken" for her. I am sure we aren't the only ones. When Micah would do something sweet, we would say something like "She says I love you." Well, even though Brooklyn is starting to say a few words here and there, he still asks us what she says. he does something funny or dances for her, he will run up to me and say "What does she says?"

This was one of my favorite conversations for a couple weeks ago:
Micah: Where is everyone?
Me: They're all at work.
Micah: Oh.
Me: Do you think mommy should work too?
Micah: You are already at work.
Me: I am?
Micah: Yes, you work at home.
Me: I do, that's a lot of work, huh?
Micah: Yep!

He still calls McDonald's "Old McDonald's" and Panda Express is "Panda Spress" (we go tothe mall a lot), he sings all the time, he will sing "hush girl, hush your lips, do the Hellen Keller and talk with your hips," he will flex his muscles and say "firepower," after seeing Up, he told Chad "that was a special movie," he asks me to take him to the mall and to play video games, he is so much fun. Oh, and did you know he is involved in a love triangle? One of his friends at church calls him stinky Micah because his girlfriend Ellie decided she was going to marry Micah. He was not happy about that. I asked Micah if he was going to marry her and he said no. I asked him who would and said "Um, Zale is." Looks like this triangle turned into a square. I just adore him!

As for my little girl, she just got some new shoes. I dare you to watch this and not smile!

I just heard about the love triangle from Kimber. I think that Smelly Bean is gonna give me (and all the boys) a run for their money. Pray for me, please.
