I have a collection of lots of little pieces of scrap paper with funny things my girls have said written on them. I always want to remember their sweet and funny observations. I think that I will continue to come back to this post to add new comments and questions that they come up with.
Audrey at 5 years of age:
To set the stage for this conversation-
Audrey, her aunt, and her two cousins are all spending the night at Grandma and Grandpa's house. Getting three little girls to go to bed has been a massive, exhausting, and frustrating undertaking. Five people, two bedrooms, and a lot of changes in who is sleeping with who and where has taken it's toll.
Finally, finally, all is quiet. My mom and sister sigh in relief. They can officially go to sleep. And then out of the quiet and darkness comes...
Audrey "Maw Maw, how did God create the world?"
Maw Maw "Well, God is SO powerful, he simply spoke and the world was."
Audrey ponders this a minute. Then-
"Maw Maw, what would happen if I spoke?"
She was completely serious. I love how things translate with her.
This from Ava in July -she is three
Ava"Mom, does Jesus have a butt crack?"
She made me answer!
March 30, 2007 Audrey is six
Audrey "Mom, what is your favorite word?"
Mom thinks. This is an important question. Her answer may be the one thing Audrey remembers as an adult. While Mom is formulating her answer...
Audrey "I'll tell you what my favorite word is-God." Pause. "and unicorn, rainbow, and butt."

I'm tucking her into bed and saying prayers when she says to me, "Stars bloom in your eyes."
Summer/Fall 2008
Ava-Merry Pleeeeease. I love that she says merry instead of pretty.
Fall 2008
Ava has been in a naming phase for quite a while. She named Ivan's longhorn Julyla this past summer. Now, she is completely stuck on a new name. Everything-horses, kittens, stuffed animals-are named dragon. I kinda like dragon as a name now.
January 2009
Audrey asks, "Do you want to hear my toe crack?" Ava buts in, "Do you want to hear my butt crack?" Silly girls!
2008-Ava calls yogurt yogret
2008-Audrey-Instead of saying, "Yes I am" she says, "Yes I arm"
January 2009-Ava late at night looking at the front door window, notices the valentines and cupids covering it. I ask if she is looking at the decorations. She says, "I can't look at it. It's too fancy!".

November 2009
Today my mom reminded me of a thing Audrey used to say. When Audrey would go out with my mom, she didn't want to hold her hand. Normally, she doesn't have a problem with this, but for some reason she got stubborn with my mom. So my mom offered her 50 cents to hold her hand. Audrey accepted that offer. From then on, when they were together, Audrey would ask to hold my mom's "money hand".
March, 2011
Ava calls vacation bee-cation. Pizza Hut is Pizza Hot. Naughty puppies are little rascals. She has expert command of the words horrible and hideous.
