Forgive the Cheez-It teeth.

How can you tell if your baby is German?

Esther: Open die fridge. Put die milk back in.

Esther: I can’t reach it!
Mama: What are you reaching for?
Esther: Die fan.

Clara: “Mama did you know we have a crack in our booty?”
Mama: “Yes!”
Clara: “That’s how God made it. And He made our eyes and our ears and our mouth and our nose and our hair and our head. But I made my bracelet.”

Lily: Was this kitchen all Daddy’s before you got married?
Mama: Yep.
Lily: And was there not a lot of food in it? Did all you see was Macaroni and Spaghetti when you came?
Mama: Ha!

Lily: I wish I liked more foods. Then I wouldn’t complain about it.
Mama: 🙁

The Things They Say

Esther was pretending to bring me supper with her play dishes and then she wanted to pray.

Mama: Ok. What do we say?
Esther: This my body. This my blood.
Mama: !!! That’s right Essie! This is my body, this is my blood etc.

Our little ones are listening in church aren’t they?! It doesn’t get much better for a Mama to hear God’s Word from her baby’s mouth.

The Things They Say

After I changed her diaper Esther said:”Thank you Mama.” Mama heart melting
Essie to Phil: “Ju Ju on cross, me love.” Daddy heart melting.

Yes, she calls Jesus “Ju Ju” or at least that’s how I’m spelling it.

Mama to the girls: Y’all do good (yes I know) in school and Mama and Daddy will give you money to go to college.
Clara: But what if I drop it all on the street?!
