Precious Gems

2007
I wanted to share a cute thing my 2 year old said recently.  I got a tomato slicer at Salvation Army.  Later Marian (2) got it out of the utensil drawer and was asking me if I got this at Salvation Armor.  Praise the Lord that she knows about the “Armor of God!" ~ Thanks to Rachel in Iowa for this quote!

 

The following quotes are from my grandson - the first when he was 3 and the rest at age 4:

 

When Justin was 3 he saw an advertisement on TV for the Sonic Scrubber.  Right away he said, making a face, "Mom, you can't use that to clean your teeth, because it has chemicals on it!"

 

After a T-ball game, Justin and his parents were waiting a long time inside Moe's Restaurant for their food.  He was quite hungry as he saw the employees being very busy, serving orders of food out the window, when he asked, "Are those for the people in the driveway?"  Of course, he meant the drive through.

 

As we walked around the zoo during vacation, Justin wanted to hold his Uncle Jeff and Aunt Rachael's hands almost the entire time.  Once as he was holding just Aunt Rachael's hand on this very warm day, he said, "This hand is all sweaty!  Let's switch hands!"  And he promptly walked to her other side and took hold of her other hand, as they walked on.

 

Before vacation Justin proudly told his friends, " 'My family' is coming to visit me!"  Then about a week after our family vacation, Justin asked his mom sadly one day, "Do you think my family misses me?"  He thoroughly enjoyed being with his aunts, uncles and grandparents and we all enjoyed spending time with him and everyone else too!
