Eager Anticipation

A - Mommy...when are we going to die?
M - Well Ashlyn, only Jesus knows the number of our days here. Why do you ask?
A - I am just really ready to go to Heaven and live with Jesus.
M - Oh me too, baby.
A - You wouldn't have to cry if I died.
M - Why is that?
A - Because you would see me again in Heaven.
M - Oh Ashlyn, you are making me cry right now!
A - I wouldn't have to cry either if you died, cause I know I would see you in Heaven! And don't worry Mommy...I would take care of Addelyn-Kate for you.

Do you have the same eager heart? Are you ready to see your Jesus? My sweet 3 year old can definitely lay conviction on her Momma's heart!

2nd Rate

Ashlyn and Addelyn-Kate were wearing matching outfits (obviously purchased from the same location). Aunt Emily asked her where they had gotten their outfits.

A - Well, Momma bought Addelyn-Kate's at the store...but she just got mine at a garage sale.

You think she is feeling 2nd rate or deprived in some way? My silly little girl :)

Mixed-Up colors

While in a public girls bathroom, Ashlyn makes an important observation!

A - Well Momma, this is awkward.
M - What is that, Ashlyn?
A - You see how this room is painted blue?
M - Yea....?
A - Don't you see? We are in a GIRLS bathroom.
M - Well you're right. I guess it is strange that the room is blue.
A- Momma?
M- Yes, baby?
A - You suppose they painted the boy's bathroom pink?

Strange Person

(We are at the Dr. to get off A's cast. The room we were in had a skeleton in it)

A- Mom. I really wish they wouldn't have put us in this room. That person over there is really scaring me!

Encouragement?

(Talking to her baby sister)

A - Honey, you’re not big enough to climb the stairs. I know you want to be a grown up, but you’re just not there yet. You are still a baby.

Chick-Fil-A

(Sitting at the dinner table with Ally)

Ally - Ashlyn, do you know what 1 + 1 equals?

A - Chick-Fil-A!

Haha...she may have a way with words, but her math skills are definitely lacking!

Ice Tag

Thanksgiving brought the opportunity to spend time with family that we rarely get to see. Ashlyn enjoyed playing/learning new games with her cousins.

A - Hey Ally, you want to play that ice game with me?
Ally - Huh, Ashlyn? What are you saying?
A - You know, that game of ice.
M - Ashlyn, are you talking about "freeze tag"?
A - Yeah! Ally, you want to play ice tag?
