to presidency meeting
to the gas station
to the school to pick up Emma
to the dentist to get Emma’s cavity filled
to school to drop Emma off
to Mandy’s to drop off her 3 boys
to Safeway
to home
Two to the backyard
One to the couch (that was me)
And this is what was heard along the way…
Savannah to Ray: Megan is my mom, and I was in her tummy.
Ray: Did it hurt when she ate you?
Savannah: I don’t remember.
Savannah: Ray, do you remember before we were babies and we lived in heaven?
Ray: No
Savannah: Yeah, Jesus was babysitting us.
Ray: Aimee S. is gonna have a baby. Her tummy is really big. She’s gonna POP and break. Isn’t that weird?
Savannah: Mom, how do babies get inside mommies?
Me (dejavu): The daddies help the mommies get the babies in her tummy so they can grow. But Nolan can tell you about that later…
Because it reminded me of this conversation I had with Nolan about a year ago.:
Nolan: How come Eli’s ears stick out and mine don’t?
Me: Because everyone’s ears are different. You get your ears from your mom and dad.
Nolan: I think I have your ears because I was inside your body.
Me: Dad helped to make you inside my body so you could have ears that look like his too.
Nolan: How did dad help make me inside your body?!
Me: Um…
Nolan (before I have thought of an appropriate response to this curious 5-year-old’s question): Oh! It’s with his PRIESTHOOD POWER- right mom?
Me: Exactly.
YAAAAAAAY!!! Hahahahaha!!! I love that story. Two hilarious/cute stories in one. I needed the laugh.
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHey Amy! We found your blog. You are so funny; this story totally cracks me up. I guess we'll be having to answer these questions pretty soon. :) It's fun to get a peak into your life. I can send you an invite to our blog if you want (it's private, and not as exciting as yours.)
