life, & the adventures of living it...: Ode to a great Mom...

While Dale & I were off cheering our basketballer on, my Mom took over car pool, tutored my daughter & helped the kids make stuffed pigs for a humanitarian project (their goal is 100!!). I feel very lucky. Enough said.

conversations...

Keaton & Shay were playing soccer in the living room last Sunday, I told them to take it outside. Shay, not wanting to go outside, said "We can't play outside on Sunday." Keaton dissappeared into his room. He later came out & said that "Jesus spoke in his ear and said that it was OK to play outside on Sunday."
When we were all giving suggestions for a name for Sam & Lacey's new baby, Keaton offered his name as an option. "That way" he said, "he would be able to go by Nike all of the time."
We were at the store buying icee's after preschool, Keaton said we can't get the brown kind because it has 'chlorine' in it.
Keaton's latest....He said to me after I was attempting to comb his hair, "but Mom, we only comb our hair for stores & dates."
Keaton was in his own little world while playing with some star wars figurines. They were fighting (complete with sound effects & all), when one figurine who was about to take out the other one said....CALLED. TO. SERVE. OUR. KING!!
We were watching Shay play basketball in a tournament this last week & Keaton yells, "Come on Shay, you can move faster than that!!!"
Keaton and an older lady were having a conversation while in line at the grocery store: Lady: "Hi, what's your name? Keaton: "Keaton, what's yours?" Lady: "Mary" Keaton: "Oh!!! Do you have a little lamb?"
Keaton was just about asleep in the car & I asked him if he needed to take a nap. He replied "No, I am just practicing being quiet for church." 2 minutes later, he was out.
Today, Keaton was asked what CTR stands for. He replied, LSU. (mmm...maybe we need to reevaluate our FHE's)
In Testimony meeting, a man with long hair got up and bore his testimony. Keaton asked, "Dad, is that Jesus?"
After coming out of my bedroom & on the way to church, Keaton says, "Mom, do you know what you are? You're a hotty!!"
Primary teacher told me the other day that Keaton said that his Dad had a whole in his hair.
Tanner asks, "Mom, what is Viagra?" (The following conversation was funnier, but I'll spare you the details)
Frustrated, Keaton comes in from playing with Tanner & Baylee & says, "MOM!!! Tanner called me a model!!!"
Keaton asks, "Tanner, did you know that 'what the help' is a bad word?"
