Thought for the Day


"Oh, it is wonderful to know that our Heavenly Father loves us - even with all our flaws! His love is such that even should we give up on ourselves, He never will. We see ourselves in terms of yesterday and today. Our Heavenly Father sees us in terms of forever. Although we might settle for less, Heavenly Father won't, for He sees us as the glorious beings we are capable of becoming."

- Elder Joseph B. Wirthlin

Finally....

I have friends that will often tell me about something their kids did that was SO hilarious! Often, a part of me feels like the boring friend and the other part of me is glad that my kids don't do "hilarious" things because it is usually something naughty that the parents think is funny. So my conclusion is that either my kids aren't naughty often or I'm a hard-nose mom. Which should I admit to? :)
But I finally have a very small funny thing. And here it is:

You know those words that you say that really don't sound so bad until you hear a 3 year old say it?! Well, Bret and I occasionally use the word "crap."
Last night Livvy, 3 yr. old, was doing something in the dining room and I dropped something in the kitchen. She jumped and then giggled saying, "Mommy, that scawed the cwaps out of me!"
Translation:
"Mommy, that scared the craps out of me!"

Bret laughed his butt off. I just shrugged, rolled my eyes and joined in. THEN we had a talk with Livvy about it. I know that we shouldn't have laughed, but what can you do?! It was way too funny!
