Stories That Make Me Giggle

I've been spending most of my weekend laughing at my kids and how silly they are. I need to tell someone about them so I may as well tell everyone. Although I'm sure they are only funny if you were there.

Okay well Emerie just makes me giggle at the sight of her. She has been so smiley lately - even when she's crying. Today in church Jonny, Emerie and I played the holy family. Emerie was supposed to be a sleeping baby Jesus, but the entire time she kept trying to stick her fingers up Jonny's nose.

Also, in church, we were singing Gloria and Jonny kept accidentally singing his harmony parts for the Christmas production - at full voice I might add. Needless to say we giggled through most of worship. This one may only be funny to choir members.

Alanna on the other hand is funny without even trying to be.
Last night I had Emerie in her crib while I was off doing something. Alanna was in there supposedly changing into her pajamas. I could hear Alanna making some weird noises and Emerie was shreaking with delight. I open the door just a crack so as not to be detected to see Alanna dancing around in her underwear singing the Grinch theme song in a voice specifically designed for Emerie. It took everything I had not to burst out laughing and ruin the little show.

Tonight while eating supper after the Elim Production (which was awesome, thanks Riki for coming with us) Alanna asks me "Was Mary really a virgin?". I say yes, of course, but follow up with "Do you know what a virgin is?". She says no but then changes her answer to a yes. She explained to me how a virgin is someone that they use as a sacrifice to bring rain.

Kids say the darndest things.

Omigosh, Leah. I was in the library when I was reading about Alana's comment about the virgin and I was laughing so hard I almost peed my pants. That's one for the books...you know she will be hearing that story for YEARS!
