It's items not years, Miss Smarty Pants!

Sarah and I were in the Walmarts on Saturday picking up 9-volt batteries and a few other items.  We were heading to the checkouts and I said, "Let's go to the 25 and under line."

Sarah replied, "But Mom, you are waaaaaaay over 25."

Sarah Said

When she came in from school yesterday, Sarah said, "Mom, you forgot to pack a drink in my lunch box today.  So I had to drink ranch dressing.  Again."

Sarah Said

Sarah's Faith Formation teacher gave each member of the class 40 slips of paper.  Each day during Lent the kids are supposed to pick out a slip and do what it says.

For example, yesterday's slip was "set the table", the day before that Sarah pulled out "practice the Our Father". 

Today her slip read, "pray for your Mother".

So after she pulled it out, she closed her eyes and said a quick prayer.

"I prayed for God to make you a better cook!" Sarah said.

Well, with God, anything is possible!

Sarah Said...

I was standing in my bathroom about to  jump into the shower when Sarah approached the bathroom door.

"Mom?" she said as she barged into the room.

"Sarah!  Can I have a little privacy please?" I said as I tried unsuccessfully to cover my nakedness.

"Oh, don't worry.  I won't laugh." Sarah said.

Sarah Said...Peter Said... (The teenage years - only now.)

As we were waiting for the bus yesterday, I was stretching and doing jumping jacks because  I was going for a run as soon as the kids were on their way to school.

"Mom!  Stop doing that!  You are embarrassing me," Sarah said.

**************

As he headed up to his room for bed the other evening Peter said, "I need my own iPod so I can listen to my music in my room by myself."

When did they turn 13?  I miss my 6-year-old and my 8-year-old!

Perhaps we need a little more PBS and a little less Disney Channel in this house.

"Mom, I'm going to be a famous rock start when I grow up!" Sarah said.

"That's great honey," I replied.

"I'm also going to be a scientist like Aunt Cathy but I'm going to wear a wig because I don't want any of my fans screaming for me when I'm doing my important scientist work."

I think someone's been watching a little too much Hannah Montana!

Sarah Said...

It was the afternoon of New Year's Eve...

"Mom, I want to stay up until Midnight tonight," Sarah said.

"You do?  Why?" I quizzed her.

"I want to see the bomb drop!"
