You’ll probably be able to tell that I actually took notes in the past week so I wouldn’t forget the content for this post. It’s so amazing what our kids say!
Paul and Hannah were writing and coloring one day. Paul drew a big oval on his paper and wrote a jaggy line through the middle of it (it looked like V-fib, actually, if you know that that looks like). He told me what it was, “A funny letter U with a lot of languages in.” I asked him what languages were. Paul said, “Languages are letters that spell things.” At least he has the word in the right general category. I think that is a new word in his vocabulary.
**********************************
Paul and Hannah were watching The Jungle Book one evening. In the beginning, Mowgli is a little baby and crying in the basket. Hannah stated, “That’s Shere Khan’s baby.” Hmmmmmm…
*********************************
We’ve been reading a lot about Moses, and of course that includes when he was a baby. I asked Paul, “Who pulled Moses from the river?”
Paul confidently answered, “Moses’ wife!”
I think he has some things to learn about relationships and age.
*************************************
Hannah bumped her head and was crying while I was fixing supper one evening. I asked, “Where did you hit your head?” and was about to ask if she wanted me to kiss it.
Hannah immediately replied (through tears and crying), “On the ceiling!”
(She did very soon correct herself and say she bumped her head on the counter, but her first answer was so funny!)
********************************
While I was bathing Paul and Hannah recently, Paul blurted out, “My skin is staying on!”
And we are so glad, my observant son Paul!
********************************
The other evening, Andrew and I were sharing a hug at the kitchen sink and Hannah came running up saying over and over again, “I want to love Daddy too! I want to love Daddy too!” So we lifted her up and had a 3-way hug.
********************************
Last evening Andrew went down in the basement to search for something. Hannah saw him going down there and stood at the top of the steps repeating, “Where you going? Where you going?” multiple times. (I don’t think he could hear her.) Finally she said, “Answer Hannah!” Ahhhh…I wonder where she learned that from?
*********************************
This morning when I was getting Hannah dressed, she said, “I want to love you! I want to love you!” and she came over and gave me a hug. That was really special!
And now for some pictures of the tiny talkers.
Hammering just like the men.
Hannah has learned how to draw circles & lines!
It’s not that cold in our house! He was just playing
with gloves on.
Andrew says Hannah really looks like a Vogan
in this picture.
Isn’t Liberace the one who played the
piano with gloves on? Hmmm…did
he sit on a yellow chair balanced on
the piano bench too?
Paul is going to bed with a cat and dog
in the cradle right beside his bed (and he
insisted that I put covers on them so
they would stay warm). Is he going to
be a great parent someday or what?
Well, that’s all for right now folks! See you next time!
They really are cute kids. You are going to look back on this 20 years from now with such fond memories. My memories of all the cute things Melissa said are fading or have already gone. LOL
