Funny Quotes

Xavier (8 yrs old) 
We told Xavier we were going to have a new baby come to our family this year.  After the initial exclamations of excitement and enthusiasm Xavier grew somber with deep thought and asked with a touch of worry in his voice, "Mom, they aren't going to send the baby home from the hospital until it's done crying are they?"  I guess he remembers all too well all of the craying Baby Owen did in the hosptial before he came home.  :D

Owen (3 yrs old)
Christmas morning Owen runs out to the front room and sees the tree filled with presents.  He suddenly souts out "Happy Birthday!  Let's sing the birthday song so we can open the presents!"  We all sang "Happy Birthday to Jesus."

Christmas morning while opening gifts Owen rips off the wraping paper from one present to discover a white, nondiscript box inside.  Enthusiastically he shouts, "Yea a box!  Boxes are my favorite!"

Maeve (5 yrs old)
Maeve: "Mom can I have a playdate with Holley?"
Me: "Yes, but you have to wait until after Christmas.  That way you can play with your new toys together."
Maeve: Growing very quiet and puzzled for a moment, "Wait, is it my birthday on Christmas?"
Me:  "No silly, remember Santa brings presents too."

The kids and I have been working hard to keep our driveway and the driveways of some of our elder neighbors cleared after all of this wonderful snowfall.  It's been a fun wintertime treat.  The ward to the child who shoveled the most for this storm goes to Rebekah!  She's a pretty awesome snow shoveler despite her preference for warm
