Emma's Quick Wit

This past week my mom and sister have graciously flown out to Dallas to help me with the new house. We have been very productive. We painted the girls room, hung curtains in the kitchen and family room and then took a day trip to Canton to scour the rows and rows of flee market finds. It's been great. Hopefully soon I'll get printshop working on this new hard-drive and get the pictures up.
Kim was able to spend lots of 1 on 1 time with the kids. Since she was able to leave hers at home. It was GREAT to have another pair of hands around (don't get me wrong my mom did her fair share of babysitting). But at one point Kim was practicing with Emma pronouncing words correctly. So they were going through the alphabet and when she got to "G" Kim said:

"G...mmm...g, g, g...GAS"
and Emma response with,
"Gas, my Daddy has Gas."

I love it!! He sure does!!

You are so brave. That kind of an admission on my blog would mean it's bitter end. I'm sure Dave would sabotage me!

I love it! Kids totally crack me up! (And that is totally an answer my kids would give about their daddy, too).
