What I've heard ...

I haven't blogged in a while, as usual ... it's been a crazy, challenging, busy, awesome, tiring, depressing, inspiring, and educational (and the list goes on) summer. ;-)

As soon as I've had time to clear my thoughts and REALLY sit down and write, I have some good stuff to blog about, but for now, since I'm still trying to catch back up on life after vacation, here are some things I thought were entertaining.

What I've heard this past week from the mouths of my children:

Tristan: "Mom, let's play doctor. I think you need to come see me in my office, and I need to take your blood pressure, because you're really losing it" (his exact words, no joke!!!). "And if you don't weigh enough, you may need to be shot." (in which he proceeds to give me a "shot", lol)

Kira: "Mama, the CD's are falling off of my dress!" (we bought her a little pink dress in Puerta Vallarta at one of the street vendors, and it's covered in silver sequins. Apparently, she thought they were CD's.

Tristan: "I want a snack, but please no crack". Me: "What did you just say?"(trying to stay calm). Tristan: "I want a snack, but I'm tired of crackers, I want something else". Me: "Oh ok, please say the whole word next time, otherwise people will think you mean a different word". Tristan: "Oh like they might think I mean cookies?". Where do kids come up with these things?

Me: "Kira, it's time to sit down for dinner". Kira: "I'm just not ready".

Tristan: "Mommy, you forgot to spank me after I disobeyed you at our friend's house."

Me: "Kira, would you like to go in the bouncy house?" Kira: "I'm too big for the bouncy house".

Tristan: "When I wake up in the morning, I want to see you sitting on the couch having your devotions and you can say to me, 'Goodmorning, Tristan! You woke up just in time to spend time with Jesus'." (Who's the parent here? haha)
