The Things Kids Say....

We took a walk today with our children since it turned out to be a nice day. Usually after we walk, we allow them to run around on the covered porch area of the church that's connected to our preschool. It's a great time for them to get their energy out because soon after our walk we take a nap. We've been working with the older group to try to help them realize their own needs and how to take care of them (especially blowing their noses instead of digging for gold - gross, I know but it's what happens!). Anyway, while running around, one little girl sneezed and then proceeded to say, "My tissue came out!". I'm sure she meant to say that something came out of her nose and needed a tissue to take care of it, but couldn't put it together fast enough in the short amount of time that she knew she needed a tissue. We had a good laugh over that one! She's a real cracker jack, but is very sweet and helpful. Over the winter months, when it seemed like we were going through a box of tissues a day, she would help the other kids wipe their noses if they didn't realize that they needed a tissue. We call her our "Mother Goose".

So very cute!!!! By the way, you are more than welcome to come visit anytime!!! If we don't have lemons yet on OUR trees, I know where I can get some!!!! Just let us know a couple of days before you get here so we'll have everything ready!!!

Ron saved his extra fun money and was able to get his dream camera -- Canon Rebel XTI 10.1 mgp. He loves that thing!!!! I can't believe the pics he gets with it!! Now he's saving for bigger lenses and all that kind of stuff. His dream is to go to Alaska on a photography expedition, but needs more equipment (and $$!!!) before that can happen. Maybe one of these days....
