This week has been one of the funniest we have had in awhile. These kids should be stand up comics. Maybe they are only funny to us but they sure make our days. Here is our story this week.
On Wednesday we decided to take the kids to the "Whittle Train Station", it is a little place in Fenton/Valley Park that has tables with wooden train sets on them, they are about 2 feet off the floor and the kids can play with the trains for free, they love it. So we went around 10am when they open and let them play until about 11:15 when Sissy and Charlie had had enough and were getting hungry and Charlie had a load in his pants and was becoming very fragrant. So we headed for home. 5 minutes before we arrived home, Charlie fell asleep. That is not good. The problem with this is, even just 5 minutes gives Charlie new life and throws his whole routine off. We woke him up, went in and ate lunch and then around 12:30pm, Bob took Charlie to put him in bed. This is our normal routine. Then I put Sissy and Dylan in bed around 1pm. Well, I walked in to Charlie and Dylan's room and Charlie sits up and says "I'm up", I said no you are not, lay down and go to sleep. I put Dylan in bed and left. It was such a beautiful day, Bob and I took our rest out on the porch, with the baby monitor. We just get settled and we hear Charlie talking and laughing and hear Dylan talking. Bob goes in to settle the two down and Dylan looks up at PawPaw and says "Charlie has problems", Bob had to run out of the room before he started laughing.
On Thursday, Dylan and Sissy went to preschool. That evening when Julie came to pick up Dylan she was asking Dylan what he had learned that day, he said he leaned about Jesus. Julie asked him what he learned about Jesus, that he was kind and good? Dylan looked at Julie and said "He wasn't there." Julie ran out of the room laughing.
Later Nick asked Dylan about what he learned and Dylan told him about Jesus and He wasn't there and Nick said "Where was He?", and Dylan said, "He wasn't coming today". I guess we are all glad it wasn't the second coming today.
UPDATE: Saturday night (9-11-10) Julie, Kylie and Dylan went to church with us on Saturday night. During the mass, there was a young man in a red shirt, singing solo in the choir. Dylan looked at his mom and shouted, "Mom, look there is Jesus in the red shirt", Julie is trying to shhhhh him, when he turns to me and shouts very excited, "Grandma, look there is Jesus in the red shirt." We were trying not to laugh and tell him that was not Jesus. Julie showed him the crucifix and said that is Jesus on the Cross and Dylan says, "Why is he up there?" We have a lot of work teaching Dylan about Jesus.
Friday, was a nasty day so we went to the basement to play, Charlie found a pink crown and was putting it on his head and wearing it around. Later, Dylan found it and put it on my head and said Grandma you be the queen, I said ok, but Charlie saw this and said he wanted it. I took it off my head and said, ok Charlie, you can be King Charlie, his lips started quivering and he started crying saying "I don't want to be King, I want to be a PRINCESS". So I had to take a picture and send it to his dad, I am sure he is very proud of his Princess son.
Now, the next 2 stories were told to me by Mary.
Thursday evening, they went to GiGi's birthday celebration. Leah was very tired and told her mom, "I am going to sit my ASS down and watch tv", Mary couldn't believe what she heard and asked Leah again, what she had said. Leah repeated it. Mary said, Leah we don't say Ass, Leah apologized. She didn't even realize that Ass was a word we didn't say. It just came out so normal. Too funny.
Also, Thursday evening on their way home, the kids were watching the Wizard of Oz in the car, when the song came on where the scarecrow was singing I want a brain, Brian started singing along. From way in the back of the van, Sissy hollered out, "Daddy, I have a brain!" before they could respond, Charlie hollered out "me too". We are sooooo grateful they have brains.
This is why we are soooooo blessed. These precious children are our hearts. Whether it is right or wrong, they are MY LIFE!
