Kids Say the Darn'dest things!

There have been some funny stuff that has been said around my house over the last month. At Preschool today, Kyle was saying the Pledge of Allegiance and at the end instead of saying "Justice for all" ... Kyle shouted "And Jesus for All!" His teacher was laughing and couldn't wait to tell me. How cute is that??

We recently told the kids that we are trying to save up money for Christmas. Hailey and Kyle have been hilarious about it. Hailey won't let anyone spend money because she wants to make sure that there is enough for everyone to get her a gift. Also, their cousin Ashley is getting baptized soon and we won't be able to go to Arizona for it. The kids were hoping to go and we told them that it costs a lot to travel and we have already taken a lot of vacations recently. Kyle in his prayer said "Please bless that we can be rich so that we can go to Ashley's baptism" We laughed because it just seemed to keep on going throughout the week with the kids.
Another comment from Kyle was "Does God not have enough money to come and visit us? Is that why we don't ever see him?" Then Hailey said that "God is rich because of all of the tithing" then she asked why He needed all of that money anyway because he never spends it. We went through the whole Prophet thing and the tithing going to churches, temples, missionaries etc. She didn't sound too convinced. She has always been one who's money burns a hole in their pocket, but has perfectly good advice to tell you not to spend YOUR money, because she intends for you to spend it on her sometime. FUNNY KIDS!!!

"Two Wheelin' it"

Kyle learning to Ride His Bike..."Two Wheeler "
July 2008

Kyle likes to say he can ride a "Two Wheeler" which really means riding a bike WITHOUT TRAINING WHEELS. We are still getting the hang of starting and stopping. Kyle will ride the bike like a scooter for a while just pushing with one foot, then he will finally lift it up and then get going. If he is about to run into something instead of turning the handle bars, he will just put out both feet and skid until he stops. Whatever works kid...KEEP IT UP! Your doing great! I love you Pal! He needs lots of Positive PRAISE, or he ends up throwing the bike down and says that he hates the bike and that it is stupid, then when I tell him it's not the bike, he tries to blame the stupid shoes he just got. I then tell him his new shoes are just fine and that he just needs to get up and keep going, with a LOT of positive praise he gets back out there to do it again. Always a cutie!
