Eddie Quotes

I posted a pic of Riley, b/cause she's been under-represented so far on this blog.
So here's a couple of glimpses into the mind of a 4-year-old
1. I was conducting sharing time last Sunday and we were discussing families and how each member of the family has different roles. I asked the children what Dads do. I got answers like, "To protect us, to make money"etc. Then I called on my son who said, "To check people's teeth." I'm not sure if he realizes that all dads aren't dentists.
2. One of our family goals is to eat healthier. Sunday night, I asked the kids to come up with one healthy dinner. Eddie's answer-"Corn dogs and bacon".
3. I guess I refer to anything you put on your hands as "gloves". At school, they read a story about a boy that lost his mittens. When Eddie got back in the car, he informed me. "Mom, my teacher says that those red things that you put on my hands are called "mittens-not gloves". Dang it! I guess I've lost my job as being the authority on what to call things.

  4. Wow, you guys are nice...Thanks! It also helps that Riley is so cute, or does she prefer beautiful. She is very photogenic. (Even if she never takes a good school picture according to her!)
    I also love the Eddie quotes. Corn dogs and bacon, super healthy!
