Interpretations of life from a 3 and 5 year old

New jammies from Creammie & Grandpa

K-Rae and I were cleaning her room this morning.  She's excited about Great-Grandma coming to stay in her room.  I told her to go get a damp rag to dust with.  She asked:  "What's a dam rag?"  I replied...."A damp rag is a rag that is just a little bit wet, not soaking wet," to which she replied "I don't think we should call it that....Daddy told me not to say dam!"  Uh-hum....somehow we managed to get her room dusted anyhow!  

Speaking of RyDaddy....at breakfast K-Rae announced, "Do you know that Daddy eats candy at night after we go to bed???"  I asked,  "How do you know that?"  K-Rae replied "I see him eating it."  OK, RyDaddy...gotta be a little sneakier apparently, and no wonder that child doesn't stay in bed if she thinks she's missing out on eating candy!  

Sadly, Creammie (the girls' name for Grammie) and Grandpa's doggie Miko passed away last week.  I explained to the girls that Creammie and Grandpa's doggie was old, had lived a good long life and has now gone to doggie heaven.    K-Rae wanted to know if that meant he died.  "Well, yes," to which she replied, "Well, I would appreciate it if Kozy doesn't get old!" (Kozy is our puppy!)

At church Sunday we were singing a song about Jesus that says numerous times throughout the song: "We are hungry, we are thirsty, we are hungry for more of you..."  Each time it said we are hungry, Little Miss Mae would look at us, rub her tummy and smile as big as she could.  And then each time it said we are thirsty, she would grab her sippy cup and drink like crazy.  RyDaddy and I just chuckled throughout the whole song at Little Miss Mae's interpretation of it.  

I'll leave you with a quick movie clip of a Bible story that K-Rae has worked on memorizing with Daddy.
