More conversations with My Children

This morning, as we began the process of cutting back on our morning TV time:

Kendra: Can we watch a show now?
Me: You can watch a show after lunch.
Kendra (crying to Bentley): Mommy says we can't watch any TV at all today!!!!
Bentley (stomping angrily into our room): Daddy said we could watch TV in ten minutes!
Craig: I said "Maybe later!"

Our kids will make great politicians some day...

Driving to church the other day:

Ryder: Me love Jesus!
Me: That's right-- we love Jesus, don't we?
Ryder: Me love Elmo!
Me:  ...And Elmo, too.  Of course.
Craig:  What are we teaching our children?

Okay, so Colton didn't actually say anything here.  But this is what you get when you try to swaddle a naked Houdini baby.  If he could speak, I'm pretty sure he'd be saying something along the lines of "Friends, Romans, Countrymen!  Lend me your burp cloths!"
