Made me chuckle!


Sometimes kids say the funniest things...

The other night we were playing charades and Kavan was acting out "hugs and kisses." We got the "kisses" part and were missing the "hugs" part. So he got pretty dramatic with his actions, and Karlee says, "that must be a china kiss!"

Karlee had asked Layne if he was going to kiss me, or wait until later and roll around with me and give me lots of kisses. WOW, what?!?!

Kavan woke up this morning a little grumpy, so during our family prayer Karlee prayed that Kavan would not be "so grumpy." Kavan started to laugh a little. At the end of the prayer he let us know that he did not say "Amen" because he did not agree with that prayer!

It's so great that our kids can make us laugh - and chuckle - and shake our heads!! :)

So tomorrow is a lucky day, right? I found this on a site about St.Patrick's Day and thought it was kind of fun...

So why do we all wear green?

Probably because you'll be pinched if you don't! School children started this tradition. Green is also the color of spring, the shamrock and is connected with hope and nature.

The luck of the Irish

Want to be lucky this St. Patrick's Day? Follow this advice:

1. Find a four-leaf clover. 2. Wear green (so you don't get pinched). 3. Kiss the blarney stone. 4. Catch a Leprechaun if you can.

In honor of the festivities we leave you with this Irish blessing: May your blessings outnumber the shamrocks that grow and may trouble avoid you wherever you go!



Tomorrow should be a very good day, perhaps lucky! So wear green and have a Happy St. Patrick's Day! :)
