Holy Pants

I (Ryan) was looking for my wallet and Emily said "I know! I know! It's in your primary pants!  You know, the pants you wear to church!"

Bathroom toots

We were at a Family Home Evening at the college ward and Avery said she needed to go to the bathroom, so I went with her. She walks into the bathroom and stands away from me a little bit and then toots. Then just as soon as she does, she says, "Ok. I am done!"

I laughed and said, "Don't you have to go to the bathroom Avery?"

"No, I just didn't want to toot out there so people could hear it."

About 2 minutes later, she says Mom, "I have to go to the bathroom."

"You just did?!" Then she winks at me and I know exactly why she has to go. Funny kid.

Hiccups at 10

Our friend Dan was visiting from Washington and asked Emily, "Do you know what happens when you turn 10?"  She responded, "Of course! You get hiccups."

A Cup

Last night as we were all gathered around the dinner table eating, I for some reason brought up that we know all objects have names, a name by which we call it by.  For instance I said,  like a plate or fork. I asked them wouldn't it be weird if this plate was called something else? But the word, plate seems to fit the object. But if the plate were named a fork, we wouldn't know the difference, we would just assume it was a fork, because that is the name that object was given. The girls thought about it for awhile and starting talking about other objects and naming them different things. Emily sat pondering then she blurted out, "But a cup is a cup because it is shaped like a cup."

Lol. I don't know why but it was so funny what she said that we all just busted up laughing so hard!

Sweet Emily

Before school each girl wanted a quarter so they could buy a popsicle at school. After school I asked the girls if they got their popsicle. Emily replied, "Yes I got a popsicle but I gave it to someone because they didn't have one."

Emily has such a caring heart and she shares with everyone so much that sometimes she is left with little to nothing. She is sure a great example to me.
