'....help us to not have any bad days, and just good days. But if we have bad days, change them into good days, so we can only have good days.' - Kahle saying our family prayer tonight.
Proud mommy moment...watching Kahle hold the door open for a family, after leaving dinner. Even though they didn't say thank you, I loved watching that little 5 year old stand there patiently waiting for them!
'Why can't everyday be like it is around Christmas time? The music, how nice everyone is and just the feeling,it's perfect!' (said with tears in his eyes) Oh Coleman how I wish it could be! This boy amazes me with his tenderness, the things he notices and is aware of.
'Mom, can you translate what boys are saying? I never know what they are trying to say.' Well Delaney, they are definitely different creatures than us girls!
'Mom, sometimes I feel like I was born in 1985!' I know for Coleman, that seems so far away. We have always said he is our old soul. Love him!
Coleman was fasting but what he was fasting for made me choke up. He was fasting so that he could concentrate better and listen and learn more from his church leaders. What 8 year old fasts for that?! I was amazed, proud, and humbled by him!
Grant picked chicken fingers for his dinner...'It's like I have pumpkin guts all over my hands!' Said with a disgusted look on his face. Since we know how much he loves pumpkin guts.... Not!! Haha!!
'Grant, I'm just 5!' said while the kids are all playing a game, and Kahle wasn't following the rules.
After visiting Jeff at work, the kids started talking about how much they miss him. I love what my older two had to say... 'That's what happens when he's a hard worker, they want him to work lots, and we don't see him too much. At least he'll make lots of money.' Grant said. 'It makes the times he comes home fun because we miss him so much!' Haden said.
I'm glad they know their dad is a hard worker and they miss him and love having him around!
While playing a video game Kahle says to Grant 'you're breaking my heart! You're breaking my heart into little little pieces!' All because he didn't get his way on the game...HAHA!!
'Mom, I wish the clock made a real 2, and not this weird one.' Digital numbers confused this little manWhile running to grab lunch, Kahle was the only one who came with me.
Kahle- 'Mom, it's gooder that they didn't come with us!'
Me- 'Why's that, bud?'
Kahle- 'Cause they don't let me talk when there's lots of us in the car. And NOW I get to talk all that I want!'
And boy did he talk! I loved it!!!
While shooting pom poms at Jeff and I, Kahle would yell 'you got pranked!'
Then if he shot you with a pink one he would say 'pink is happiness. Are you happy now?'
'Mommy, I love Jesus more than popcorn!'
If you know anything about Kahle, you'll know he really loves popcorn. So he must love Jesus a whole lot!
Snuggling after showers and she says 'oh I hope the brothers don't come and ruin this moment'. Oh my heart, I love this girl!
'I know why it's called a ruler, cause you can 'rule' (roll) your shirt up!' - Kahle
'Dad left, so I guess moms in charge.' Kahle said to his siblings after coming to ask Jeff something, only to find he wasn't home. I guess we know who runs our house, Jeff, and it isn't me!
Kahle - 'Mom, are we going in circles? Then why do I keep seeing those white things (meaning silos on the farms)?
'There's so much nature out here! We don't have this much nature in Las Vegas!' - Delaney (while visiting back east.
'Slug bugs are just an excuse to slug people!' Cole said while riding in the van yesterday.
Colemans prayer of gratitude...'thank you that my mom finally watched Star Wars, so she can know what we're talking about, and know what's going on when we go see the new movie."
'Welcome to sickville, population 7.' - Coleman
There have been plenty of laughs this year!!!
