"Mommy, I think those are real, but they're up in heaven."
Each of these things are precious, daily reminders of my boys, but my current favorite thing that I love about the boys is how they are the best of friends. God gave them such a gift in each other, and I am so grateful that He brought them into each other's lives!
Luke: "Why do you call yourself 'Mommy'?"
Mommy: "Because that's what you guys call me."
Luke: "But some people like to call you 'Jeanine'."
Silas: "I like you to call you pretty."
Luke: "Me, too!"
Mommy: "Aw, boys...that is so sw-"
Luke: "Who wants to be called stinky man?!?"
Mommy: "Hmmm...I'm going to have to park a little better."
Luke: "You don't have to say so many words. It's okay."
"Who wants to go to the clam store with fire on it?"
Luke: "The park is close to the grocery store."
Mommy and Daddy {not thinking it warranted a response}: "..."
Daddy {but knowing Luke}: "Yes, it is."
Luke: "I thought I was going to have to say it two times!"
Luke: "The park is close to the grocery store."
Mommy and Daddy {not thinking it warranted a response}: "..."
Daddy {but knowing Luke}: "I know."
Luke: "I thought I was going to have to say it two times!"
Luke: "I miss Aunt Tiffany."
Daddy: "She'll be here in just a little bit, and then you'll get to see her. She'll come to our house, and maybe she can even babysit you."
Luke: "Daddy, we're not babies anymore. I want to call it 'big-sit'."
Mommy: "Silas, you're doing a great job playing Candyland with us. You're such a big boy! When you were littler, you couldn't play Candyland."
Silas: "Because I didn't have any hands?"
Silas: "Daddy, can you make us breakfast?"
Daddy: "I don't know how."
Silas: "You *puck it in the toaster, and then you give it to someone."
*put
Luke: "Daddy, I had a string on my lip, but I took it off."
Daddy: "A string? What was that?"
Luke: "It was some skin, but it was *killed."
*dead
(sorry for the grossness - it just went with today's picture....) :)
"Silas, when you turn 3, I'll turn a little bit more 4, and then I'll turn 5."
Silas: "Let's play leapfrog!"
Daddy: "What is leapfrog?"
Silas: "It's when you jump over Luke and play leapfrog!"
{They then play leapfrog, but Luke accidentally steps on Silas's fingers in the process.}
"And that's how we do leapfrog when Luke steps on my fingers."
Daddy {throwing away old glowsticks}: "Oh, it looks like they ran out of juice."
Silas: "Can we get some more juice?"
"I think I have candy in my nose. It's so sour!"
- Luke's weird sick notes
Luke: "I love you, Mommy."
Mommy: "I love you, too, Luke! That makes me so hap-"
Luke: "and I love Daddy, too."
Mommy: "That's gre-"
Luke: "And everyone in the whole world. Even people I haven't met yet."
Luke: "I think I might be scared tonight."
Mommy: "You don't need to be scared. Mommy is here. Daddy is here. God will protect you. Nothing will happen."
Luke: "...doesn't something happen every day?"
Luke: "I'm sick."
Mommy: "What kind of sick?"
Luke: "Big sick."
