Off to the Fall Festival at church and11/27/16
Tonight we were invited to a friend's house to share in their traditions of lighting the advent wreath. There were several other guests there as well (all friends from church). While were were all gathered around enjoying the refreshments there was a light discussion about how kids pick up on things and often know about things that we are not sure how or where they learned them. Rachel chimed in and announced "Yeah, like when Dad teaches me cuss words!!" Very funny Rachel!

This morning I overheard the girls conversation:
Rachel (age 7) [smiling] "I had a good dream. All the boys in my school liked me."
Elizabeth(3 weeks shy of 10 yrs old) [quizzical] "Why is that a good dream!?

This morning my daughter (age 7) yelled out to me in excitement"Mom! My brain is bigger!". I replied, "It is?! How do you know that?". She responded, "I remember how small it was and now it's bigger!". She then ran into my room to show me. She walked in with a little brain in a bowl. I forgot about the little brain toy I gave her yesterday that grows bigger in water.

Elizabeth was getting ready to juice an orange and needed a knife to cut the orange in half. Elizabeth showed me a large sharp knife and I directed her to use a different knife. I then instructed her to be careful! Rachel, listening to the conversation, said, “Mom it's not rocket science she has used a knife before. If it was rocket science it would be dangerous because she would be mixing chemicals together and they could explode.”
