When my father passed away
recently, my oldest son 8, asked his granny, if he could have Pawpaw's insoles?
He followed that with, "Pawpaw won't need them, your feet never hurt in
Heaven." My mother thought it was the sweetest thing.

While
trying to keep the Christmas focus on Jesus' Birthday instead of Santa and
presents, my husband and I were explaining to our three and a half year old,
that we celebrate Jesus' gift of love by giving to others at Christmas.
Our precious little girl went straight to her room and picked up her favorite
doll, came back and said "Here mommy, give this to Jesus for Christmas, and
tell him I'd like a baby that cries this year."

I
have a precious 4 year old daughter named Kelsey and the other day we adopted a
male cocker spaniel (adorable little dog). I was bathing my daughter in
the bath tub when suddenly the dog came running in, my daughter started
screaming to the top of her lungs - "No mama, he can not come in!!"
"But honey, I answered, he is only a dog!" "But mom, he is
a BOY!!, and I am naked!"

We were visiting a
new church, and they happened to have a speaker that night. Aerial, our
five year old can barely see over the pews up to the stage where the speaker is
praying. She notices he is finnished, and the entire church is silent.
Then the pastor, who is sitting down in a chair behind the man who is standing
there speaking at the pulpit begins speaking. (Aerial cannot see him).
Her eyes grew to about the size of half dollars, and she turned to me and asked,
"IS That GOD Talking MOMMY?"

My 4 year old daughter and I
were listening to a Christian radio station while driving in the car. The
man on the radio said that some people only call on God when they are in
desperate need. My daughter looked at me and said, " I didn't know
God had a phone, can I call Him too?" I had some explaining to do,
now she understands that we talk to God through our Prayers, anytime, anywhere.

My daughter, then 7, had
received a heart shaped box of candy from her nana for
valentines day. Her brother and 2 cousins had received the
same gift. She left her box of candy at nana's for several
days and when we finally went to pick it up...she looked in
it to find that all but one piece was gone. She looked at me
and slammed the lid on the box and said..."Those
Chocoholics!!! ate all my candy!"

While trying to serve our two year old a
vegetable she didn't like at the dinner table, she boldly stood straight up in
her high chair and proclaimed to everyone in the family, "I go
OUTSIDE!" And she had every intention of leaving the house. I
think it was the spinach.

After an exasperating day with friend
Tiffany, involving lots of unwilling sharing, Jane's prayer went like this:
"Dear Lord, thank you for my day with Tiffany. But tomorrow God, please
don't let her whine!"

During a summer meeting with my 5 year old
son's new Kindergarten
teacher, the teacher said to him - "Do you know what this color is?"
(Holding up a tan colored marker.) My son answered,
"No..." The teacher replied,
"This color is called Tan." Then my son perked up and delightedly
answered,
"Oh yeah, my mommy wants to get one of those!"

When my
daughter Michelle was 4, we were watching a program on TV and they were
dancing the Macarena, and she tells me, "Mommy, I know how to do that!!
Watch me do the MACARONI !! " What ever the dance was, she could
do it, and I had tears running down my face.

My daughter is in her first
softball season. One of my friends asked her what position she liked
playing best, pitcher? catcher? 1st base? My precious little Danielle just
looked at her with a smile on her face and said "Batter" ~ gotta love
that little angel!

My stepdaughter, Melissa, is
the kind of person who blurts out the first thing that enters her mind. One day,
when she was about 11, my wife and I were helping her make a model volcano for
class. We were up to our ears in plaster and paper maché. As is often the case,
Patty and I disagreed on a certain procedure so we were giving poor Melissa
conflicting directions. Finally she threw up her hands in frustration and said,
"Please! Two horses can't teach a calf!" It made perfect sense to her,
but my wife and I are still trying to figure it out.

When out for dinner with my son one evening we had ordered a
very flaky apple strudel for dessert. He eyed it appreciatively before
taking a bite. A questioning look came into his eye as he said
"This is really good, Mom, but why do they serve it with cardboard?"
