snippets from our days

J: "Mom?!"

Me: "Yes, Jonah?"

J: "Jesus loves you."

(by all means, if your feet are cold, wear any socks you can find...even mom's!)

J, while pushing buttons feverishly on his play cell phone: "I texting."

(first horse ride. very exciting)

Ben on phone: "...so we'll just have to catch-up soon!..."

J in the other room: "mmmmmm....yummm...mmmmm"

Me: "what's yummy?"

J: "ketchup."

(not sure who was more proud about this...)

Recently we purchased what is affectionately known as 'the tent' for Jonah's bed. It keeps him in, and safe, and has provided us some much needed sleep that was lacking for a couple weeks. It's totally humane (don't judge me). Anyway, at first let's just say, it wasn't really Jonah's favorite thing. But we all got used to it and "no cry in tent" (complete with finger shake and raised eyebrows) anymore. Actually, when I went to get him out after his nap today he wouldn't get out and passionately yelled "NO! Play in tent." Paradigm shift?

(Jordans. a couple sizes too big still, but someone found them and won't take them off.)

Yes. You are funny, little man...
