Precious Gems from Little Ones of Heart to Heart Subscribers

Ladies, thanks for allowing these Precious Gems to be included in Heart to Heart for everyone to enjoy!

With a new baby brother in the house, Chaeli, age 4, has become Mommy’s little helper.  When asked to go get the bottle from the kitchen, she asked, “Out of the milk toaster?”  I had a great laugh when I finally realized she meant bottle warmer. ~ Alison in Ohio
 
During dinner one night, conversation turned toward the subject of our dog, Solomon, who is now 8 years old, and is starting to show signs of being older. Coryn, our oldest daughter, age 7, seemed especially contemplative, when she said, “Solomon will be in Heaven one day.” Without going into an even deeper discussion about the reality of this, I asked, “You think so?” She said, “He will be in dog and cat heaven. It’s right next door to regular heaven, so we can go and visit him.” The funnier thing is, she’s never even seen the movie called “All Dogs Go to Heaven.” How do kids think this up? ~ Alison in Ohio


My husband, Steve,
was showing Tucker, our toddler, how to play with the new remote control car he had gotten.  Tucker holds the remote up near his face and says, "Teese" (cheese).  He thought it was a camera!  Do you think we take his picture too much? ~ Christy in Virginia      

My granddaughter, Virginia Mae, 3,  told me on the phone, "Happy New Christmas DeeDa."  Guess that covers all her bases for Christmas and New Year's Day! ~ Tressia in Virginia (Virginia's mother is Julia in North Carolina.)          


"This is my third year with the Cubbies (3-4 year olds) at our church.  I've been called a variety of names, including just "Cunningham," "Cuttingham," "Somebody," and "Hey, You."  But Jeremiah and Natalie Escalera associated the Cubbie Bear puppet with me and started calling me "Mrs. Cubbie-ham."  It stuck, and I love it!" ~ Kathy in Virginia  (Sarah in Virginia is the mother of Jeremiah and Natalie.) 


Indian war paint does not come off little boys' bodies. Even if the package SAYS they are washable magic markers. Moral of the story - always investigate if your kids are too quiet! ~ Lisa  in Virginia

Jojo (9) and Boom-Boom (6) have been reading their kid's dictionary. I thought, "I am going to have genius kids!" Until... I heard them reading the Garfield comic strips in it! Hahahahaha! Well, at least the strips use voabulary words from the dictionary. ~ Darlene in Thailand


I evidently crash into the couch, exclaiming over my aching back a little too much... Karis (3) has started complaining about her back, asking us to pray for it at night and putting pillows behind her just like I do. Last night Mark told her that she should not say that her back is hurting is if it not, because that it a lie. She replied, "But I just want to be like Mama!!!" I was laughing and tearing up at the same time (stupid pregnancy hormones again :) ~ Meagan in North Carolina

Sam (4): "No, Mommy, when you are not here, and it is just me, Sierra, and Daddy, we get to do whatever we want!" ~ Tiffany in Colorado
