Mara-isms

I know, I know, I hate when parents make their blogs about "I have the cutest kids in the world". But I also recognize that every once in a while I love hearing the fun, quirky things that their kids have done. So, I will share a few quotes from a day in the life as Mara's mom.

1. Eden has a cough that has moved into her chest. Mara said "yea, I've noticed she sounds all rusty."

2. Mara's stomach was hurting a little bit but then she told me she had a big long burp and she felt better. She said it feels like the big long burp has a shovel and digger that dig out all the bad stuff and pull them out with the burp.

3. When Mara was in the bath tonight she farted and said that it sounded like a toad burping under the water.

4. Mara was looking at the case for the movie "The Parent Trap."(BTW one of my all time favorite movies!) She asked what it was called and what it was about. I told her the premise of the movie and then she was guessing as to how they trapped the parents to get them married. Her idea was that they created a force field around the temple so that the parents couldn't leave and had to get married. Hmm, not so bad, maybe I'll pitch it to some church movie maker. "The Mormon Parent Trap". That has winner written all over it.

Being a mom really is fun. These kids are more original than adults any day.
