Funny Stuff My Kids Have Said

Posted by Michele

I am going to try to remember as many as possible, but my kids have said some really funny stuff over the years. 

One time we were in Altoona, and we got behind a car with one of those Penn State paw print magnets on the back.  Cameron was about 2 at the time, and he yelled, "Look!  A clue!"

One Sunday, Dave was getting ready to take the kids to Sunday School and he put Emily in his truck and buckled her in.  When he shut the door, the window on the side of his cap shattered.  Cameron looked down at all the glass and then looked and Dave and said, "That sucks."

Here is a conversation I overheard toward the end of last month:  Emily said, "Cameron, when is my birthday?"  Cameron said, "I think it's in Secember.  Hey, TODAY is Secember!"  She said, "Is TODAY my birthday or is it on the 26th like yours?"  He answered, "I'm not sure, but I think it's on a weekend."  By the way, her birthday is in December...

One night, Dave was trying to do something and I overheard him saying, "Damn!"  Cameron said, "D-A-M"

The other day, I packed Cameron's lunch and I gave him an apple, a pudding cup and a sandwich.  Dave asked him if he ate his lunch and he said, "I forgot to eat my sandwich and my apple."

 

Ok, apparently, I need to think about this some more.  I can't remember any more.  I'm sure more will come to me later, so I'll do another post...

In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials.These have come so that your faith- of greater worth than gold, which perishes even  though refinded by fire - may be proved genuine and may result in praise, glory, and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed. 1 Peter 6-7

I'm dead and not stopping anytime soon! I got up and mopped and worked out and took a bread to start laundry, get Joey going on school, make bfast, make oatmeal cinnamon chip bars, and then vacuum. I did get Sunday School prepped for as well. The cinnamon rolls and caramel rolls smell HEAVENLY that are baking int he oven!  I still need to ge potatoes peeled and diced for mashed potatoes (to go w/the chicken'n'noodles!) and then I can take a break. I"m sure the laundry is ready to come off the line as well.

I GOT MY VERA BAGS TODAY! She just mailed them priority yesterday! The post office ROCKS! And I LOVE the bags! Mom's medical binder fits perfectly in the curvy tote that I got for her! PTL! I'm still not sure if I'm going to keep the 2nd tote or not. I wished that I'd had more money cuz they would've been AWESOME gifts for Christmas!

Getting it back on track

 Today I am not frustrated (yet) and not frayed at the edges. It is my hope that I remain intact.
What helped me today (so far):
getting enough rest. I’ve been staying up too late and waking up earlier than I want to. My body just can’t take that and be happy about it.
Must adjust to the reality.
Often my expectations of myself and what I want to accomplish are bit, shall we say:
UNrealistic. Ahem.
I still try to be supermom.
Super homeschooling-work-at-home-youth-director mom.
And don’t forget
loving-supportive-helpmeet-extra-sweet wife.
Can you see my cape? Oh drat, its half stuck in my pants.
This skewed view can lead to periods of great success and just as successful crash and burn- as in
goingdowninablazeofglory crashing. Fun for others to watch (like rubbernecking) yet extremely un-fun for the spiraling an*l retentive person whose expectations just smacked pavement sotospeak.
I am determined to get enough rest.
I am determined to
not even attempt to climb out of bed until I’ve prayed and had my quiet time. Yes, even if I am running late I WILL do this. A day can go from back to worse just that fast.
Bad- blink-worse-blink- and we are into ohsoverymuchworsewordscannotexplainyouwould
havebeenbetterofftoberunninganhourbehindinyourschedule worse
. Yeah that bad.
I decided I needed to get back in the habit of committing my day to the Lord during morning prayer time. And the habit of praying over my schedule asking God to
rank the priority of matters- not me. Sometimes I get to thinking that clean underwear supersedes morning devotions with the kids or that really good part in the book I’m reading is more important than starting dinner on time. Or having a clean kitchen is more important than that way cool science experiment that must ultimately live in said kitchen for two weeks.
I am aware my priorities need a bit of adjusting. But I do stand by the fact that clean undergarments are incredibly important. BUT not more important than devotions. Maybe I could have the kids stand around me, reading the devotion while I stuff clothes in the wash? I’m Kidding! Really. I would so not do that. Be tempted, yes, actually have that happen- no.
My inability to stop multi-tasking can be compared to a kid skimming a test and only getting half the answers right. You miss a lot and get some things wrong when you skim the surface. I’m always telling the kidlets to “read the directions- ALL the directions.” Someone should take their own advice.


THE NAME ABOVE ALL NAMES

This came in my inbox. Thought I would share it. HUGS!

 

THE NAME ABOVE ALL NAMES

 

He is the First and Last, the Beginning and the End!
He is the keeper of Creation and the Creator of all!
He is the Architect of the universe and
The Manager of all times.
 
He always was, He always is, and He always will be...
Unmoved, Unchanged, Undefeated, and never Undone!
He was bruised and brought healing!
He was pierced and eased pain!
 
He was persecuted and brought freedom!
He was dead and brought life!
He is risen and brings power!
He reigns and brings Peace!
 
The world can't understand him,
The armies can't defeat Him,
The schools can't explain Him, and
The leaders can't ignore Him.
 
Herod couldn't kill Him,
The Pharisees couldn't confuse Him, and
The people couldn't hold Him!
Nero couldn't crush Him,
 
Hitler couldn't silence Him,
The New Age can't replace Him, and
Donahue can't explain Him away!
He is light, love, longevity, and Lord.
 
He is goodness, Kindness, Gentleness, and God.
He is Holy, Righteous, mighty, powerful, and pure.
His ways are right,
His word is eternal,
 
His will is unchanging, and
His mind is on me.
He is my Redeemer,
He is my Savior,
 
He is my guide, and
He is my peace!
He is my Joy,
He is my comfort,
 
He is my Lord, and
He rules my life!
I serve Him because His bond is love,
His burden is light, and
 
His goal for me is abundant life.
I follow Him because He is the wisdom of the wise,
The power of the powerful,
The ancient of days, the ruler of rulers,
 
The leader of leaders, the overseer of the overcomers, and
The sovereign Lord of all that was and is and is to come.
And if that seems impressive to you, try this for size.
His goal is a relationship with ME!
 
He will never leave me,
Never forsake me,
Never mislead me,
Never forget me,
 
Never overlook me, and
Never cancel my appointment in His appointment book!
When I fall, He lifts me up!
When I fail, He forgives!
 
When I am weak, He is strong!
When I am lost, He is the way!
When I am afraid, He is my courage!
When I stumble, He steadies me!
 
When I am hurt, He heals me!
When I am broken, He mends me!
When I am blind, He leads me!
When I am hungry, He feeds me!
 
When I face trials, He is with me!
When I face persecution, He shields me!
When I face problems, He comforts me!
When I face loss, He provides for me!
 
When I face Death, He carries me Home!
He is everything for everybody, everywhere,
Every time, and every way.
He is God, He is faithful.
 
I am His, and He is mine!
My Father in heaven can whip the father of this world.
So, if you're wondering why I feel so secure, understand this...
He said it and that settles it.
 
God is in control, I am on His side, and
That means all is well with my soul.
Everyday is a blessing for GOD Is!
