Funny Moments of the Week

I was vacuuming the family room. As I was doing it, Logan decided to dump out an entire bucket of the large sidewalk chalk onto the carpet. Ainsley started screaming, "Mom, don't vacuum up the chalk!" Madison calmly said the Ainsley, "Ainsley, that would be ridiculous. If mommy did that it would go ding, ding, ding, ding."

As the girls were watching a movie, there was a mention to "boarding school". Madison asked me what it meant. I told her it is a school that you go and stay at for along time. She says seriously, "Oh, so it is boring school not boarding school." I laughed and told her that it should be called that but it is not.

Sunday and Sundae

Yesterday, Madison got to go to a church ice cream party. On the way there, I asked her: "What are you going to have on your ice cream sundae?" She started to cry and I asked her why she was crying. She says:

"Mom, I thought it was Saturday. Did I miss my ice cream party?" I explained to her that they are the same word with different meanings. We went on to discuss what makes the best ice cream Sundae!

Sock-Cer

Madison comes up to me this morning and says:

"Mom, I think I know why soccer is called soccer. It is because we wear socks!"

After a moment she gets a strange look on her face and says, "But I don't know why it has the "cer" at the end."

Too funny!

Jesus Town

I had to take Logan to the doctor's today because he has an ear infection in both ears. As we were waiting for the medicine, the girls were coloring. They each have a bag that is always packed for church. I brought them just in case we were going to be waiting long. In their church bags, they have coloring pages for every theme: My Little Ponies, Barbie, Princesses, Scripture Stories, Friend Coloring Pages, etc...

As I was chasing Logan around the crowded pharmacy, I heard Madison say, "No Ainsley, you are trying to get to Jesus Christ."

A few minutes later I hear Ainsley yell with her hands up in the air, "Yepee, I made it to Jesus Town!"

I was laughing so hard as I go over to see what they are coloring. It was a maze from Christmas. So many people were laughing.

Oh- and some have asked what the blood was from in Ainsley's hair. Ainsley and Madison had been "playing" with a balloon, more like fighting over the balloon and then next thing I know, Ainsley's head hit the corner of our coffee table. The top of her ear was swollen and cut up in 2 spots. I was so proud that I remained calm and all was fine until Madison starts yelling, "It's Bleeding! It's Bleeding! There is Blood in you hair!" That is when Ainsley started screaming and I just got irritated. I wished the imaginary mom was dealing with all of it. All is well now though.

An Imaginary Mom

Last night while I was trying to do too many things at once, I finally turned to Madison and said,

"Madison, there is only 1 mommy and 3 children that are screaming for something. You will have to wait for me to help you with your homework while I clean the blood from Ainsley's hair and ear and clean up the chips Logan spilled and is currently stomping on."

I hear Madison pouting say, "I wish there was an imaginary mommy to help me. I still want my real mommy, but it would be nice to have an imaginary one too."

I turned to her and said, "I really wish there was one too!"
