Two little girls

I just have to write about my little girls. They are so funny sometimes. They are at the kitchen table right now still in their jammies. They are coloring and having their own little conversation. I am only half listening. A minute ago Abby says "mom, mom listen to me!" So I turn around and say "what?" Clarissa then scowls at me and says, "mom you not the mom, I the mom." I say "oh sorry" while I'm, trying not to laugh. Then I go back to what I'm doing and she starts singing.

She has been singing two songs for the last couple of weeks. I am a Child of God and You are My Sunshine. So cute right? Yesterday I was listening to her sing in her room and she is singing the second verse of sunshine and it is supposed to be "I dreamt I held you in my arms, when I awoke dear I was mistaken, so I hung my head and I cried." She is singing "When I awoke dear I was naked, so I hung my head and I cried." Makes me laugh every time I hear it now! I really should correct her but I haven't yet it is too funny!! They are so cute when they say things wrong even though it is our job to teach them to speak correctly sometimes I let a few things go on for longer than I should. Abby is five years old and still says "tonypail" instead of ponytail. I used to correct her but then decided it was too cute and she will be grown up too fast so I just let her be. I will be sad the day she figures it out and says it right.

  1. I love those stories! You are smart to let them just keep saying funny things. I like it when kids say that kind of stuff. I wish I had it all written down.

    What's Phil's new calling?

Nik's Favorite Scripture

Remember, remember that it is upon the rock of our Redeemer, who is Christ, the Son of God, that ye must build your foundation; that when the devil shall send forth his mighty winds, yea, his shafts in the whirlwind, yea, when all his hail and his mighty storm shall beat upon you, it shall have no power over you to drag you down to the gulf of misery and endless wo, because of the rock upon which ye are built, which is a sure foundation, a foundation whereon if men build they cannot fall.
Helaman 5:12

Phil's Favorite Scripture

Yea, verily, verily I say unto you, if all men had been, and were, and ever would be, like unto Moroni, behold, the very powers of hell would have been shaken forever; yea, the devil would never have power over the hearts of the children of men.
Alma 48:17
