The Bad Dream
Mimi: Mom, I had a bad dream!
Me: Oh, sweetheart! Tell me about it.
Mimi: Atticus was crawling around and he turned into a crocodile. You yelled at me to run and I ran.
Me: That is scary!
Mimi: And David was there too.
Me: What did David do.
Mimi: He ran too.
(I laughed SO hard internally about David running away, and then thought that maybe I should be worried about sibling rivalry. What does it mean when your baby brother turns into a crocodile?)
About Jesus
Mimi: Mom, do you know about Jesus?
Me: Yes! (Maybe a little too energetically...I have to be cool to not scare away the conversation.)
Mimi: Did you know they cut him and put a knife in his stomach?
Me: Yes, that makes me sad. But do you remember what happened after that?
Mimi: Yea, Jesus saw his best friend, Mary, and told her he was alive.
Me: Isn't that wonderful! I love Jesus so much for doing that for us.
Mimi: I love Jesus with all my heart.
Me: Me too, dolly.

Soooo cute! I pretty much love everything kids say. They have the best way of putting things. The other day I was talking to my coworkers daughter and she had a ponytail so I thought, "you're never too young to learn the ponytail joke". I said, "Sylvia, is this a ponytail?" She said, "yes". I asked, "Do you know what's under a pony's tail?" She answered, "hair" but I said, "no, a butthole". She looked at me sternly and said, "you can't say that word" and ran away. I kind of felt bad but I was also laughing really hard inside.
