On a Lighter Side...Out of the mouths of babes

After a rather tense week, I really needed something to make me laugh. Well, I got my wish tonight. Mom called me shortly after we got home from work and invited me to come to dinner with her and Miranda, and then go see Grams at the nursing home. Will already had plans, so I was glad to go with them. As we got to Pizza Hut, we were pleasantly surprised to see John, Amy, Jenna and Alyssa pull in. We ended up sitting together and we had a good time. Jenna sat beside me and boy is she animated! Gets more so every day. She folded the paper place mats and was making "air-o-planes" which she accused Deda of ruining, and had me hide one because "Deda ruins little kids air-o-planes". She was trying to make me disappear with her straw when she became a fairy. It was all very entertaining, as she usually is, but nothing topped the evening like a certain comment she made that had me just about wetting my pants! She turned her back to me, tipped her head back and layed it backward on my arm and looking up at me asked me, "Can you do this?" "Yes." I answered. "No, I mean can you lay on people?" she asked. I told her that I'd be way to big to lay on people, I'd hurt people. She glanced around the room and then pointed to a guy a couple of tables over. "That man's big Gigi, you could lay on him!" Ohhhhh my goodness!!! Well, anyway... as I said in the title of this entry, "Out of the mouths of babes".
Thanks again to you all for praying for Will. He made it through his tests and is very relieved that's over. We go Tuesday afternoon back to the specialist to get the results.

There are three things I have learned dealling with children...1...I cannot be easily embarrassed, they will get me every time!...2...I may think you have it all under control,but I really don't!...3...If I think you have all the answers, I find out that I just haven't heard all of their questions! Bless the little children, because they keep me from having too big of an opinion of myself! They have definately kept me gounded over the years!LOL
Wouldn't have it any other way!

I don't know if the man heard or not, but he did see her point and say something, because he was talking and looked over at just the right time. Of course! :)
