Too juicy

Ashlyn and I were talking about her bible story from MDO.

A - Jesus fed 5,000 people Momma.
M - I know! Isn't that neat?
A - Yeah, He broke the loaves into pieces. But He didn't break the fish and I'm really glad.
M - Why is that?
A - Well, if he had broken the fish in to, all the juices would have come out and that would be disgusting.

There is none righteous, no not one (not even Mommy!)

In trying to ready both the girls for bed, I had to use a very stern voice towards Ashlyn on more than one occasion. She was definitely not being obedient the first time.

As we lay in her bed and get ready to pray, Ashlyn lets me know that I am the one who needs prayer ;)

A - Mommy, you need to tell Jesus you are sorry for using ugly words at me in the bathroom.
M - What do you mean Ashlyn?
A - You were being mean to me when I was getting ready for bed.
M - Do you mean my voice sounded unkind?
A - Yes. That is not very nice and you need to ask Jesus to forgive you.
M - Ashlyn, mommmy was not using unkind words. I was just telling you what you needed to do to be ready for bed. You weren't listening, so I had to make my voice sound different to get your attention.
A - Well Mommy, the Bible says that ALL have sinned and fall short of the Glory of God, so you need to ask Jesus to forgive you.

Healer

M - Who do we need to pray for tonight?
A - We need to pray for Addelyn Kate momma.
M - You are right. Do you remember what is wrong with her?
A - She has a double ear confection. But it's okay.
M - Why is it okay?
A - Because God is the great healer mommy, and He can fix that for us.

I love to hear my girl speak truth!

Hellfire and Brimstone

I overheard this "conversation" Ashlyn was having with her teddy bear.

A - Teddy Bear, do you love Jesus?

(I suppose Teddy Bear said no. WRONG ANSWER!)

A- Well, I guess you are just going to die and go to hell...to live with satan!

Sleeping Beauty

(Ashlyn lying on the bed "reading" her bible)

Popa Dave - Ashlyn are you reading your bible?
A - Uh huh.
Popa Dave - What are you reading? Philippians?
A - No. I'm reading about Sleeping Beauty.

Suppose I should tell her that Aurora is NOT in the bible?

Apple...the brand

We were at the Spectrum in CA when Emily and Ashlyn passed by the Apple store.

Emily - Oh Ashlyn look! There is a big apple up there!
A - Where?
Emily - Look! Right up there!
A - That's not an apple...it's a computer brand.

"New" hands and feet

Addelyn Kate has just "found" her hands and feet this week! So cute:)

Granna, Ashlyn and Addelyn Kate were out in the backyard relaxing.

Granna - Ashlyn, let's call Nana and tell her that Addelyn Kate has found her hands and feet!

A - Did she not have hands last week?
