Kid Quotes

Overheard:

Caroline: "Cecilia, you weren't even born when Mommy was a kid... God was still making you. He was still putting on your feet and toes. And He was filling Mommy's tummy with water."

Cecilia: "Put holy water in Mommy tum-tum!"

Cecilia the Engineer:

Caroline: "Mommy, what's this?" (pointing to the post at the center of the food processor after both the girls had helped me use it to shred a big block of cheese)

Cecilia: (before I had a chance to answer) "The spinner."


Observant child, that one. You can't even see it spinning when the bowl part is attached... but logically and mechanically, it must.

Caroline on God's Immeasurable Love

Many nights when I am kissing Caroline good night, I say to her, "I love you, Caroline, and God loves you even more!"

Tonight, she said, "We can't know how much He loves us... He loves us until counting stops! You have to count to ninety-nine before it stops!"

From the mouths of babes...

Caroline: "Grampa, is Muh (Gramma) getting old?"
