Who writes this stuff?

I try to keep my priorities in order: Jesus, my Andy, our children, everything else. I homeschool our boys, love to read almost all written words and have been challenged by the military life for 18 years. Right now my faulty human body is demanding a lot of attention. One day at a time, learning as much as possible every day and remembering to look for JOY when other things threaten to overwhelm.

My Blog Title Verse

"For the Lord gives wisdom. From His mouth come knowledge and understanding." Proverbs 2:6 NKJV
The Message translation puts it this way "God gives out Wisdom free, is plainspoken in Knowledge and Understanding."

Change of subject

I have been slightly "Gifty" obsessed on here lately, so I wanted to give my other kids a little time in the limelight too. First, a Canaan story. 
 When Andy was cooking our fish for dinner the other night, Canaan came into the room and asked, "Daddy, are we having dead animal for dinner again?" Andy was not happy, to say the least. He proceeded to tell Canaan that he had been listening to "his mommy" entirely too much, and that fish was made out of vegetables. My son is no fool! He wasn't falling for that. He questioned his daddy, of course. It led to a small "argument" which ended with Andy questioning how Canaan could know that fish was dead animal. Canaan declared that his mommy told him so, and "Mommy is ALWAYS right!" 
 I listened quietly from the sidelines, but I must say that I was quite happy with the ending of that discussion! 

 Zion has recently started a new saying also. He shrugs his shoulders up and says "I don't know". We got it on video, because it really is the cutest thing ever. He can't quite pronounce it clearly, but he is so confident that he gets the point across. Hilarious! If I ever figure out video on here, I will post it.

AGH! I had a great comment all ready to go and realized I am on Corey's computer and when I switched accounts it erased my comment!
Remind me to tell you about an "animal/food" page we did in a workbook...it is hilarious from a "back in the day" workbook we have.
anyway, can't wait to see zion's new expression, it sounds adorable!

I have not had good luck with uploading videos using the Blogger video uploader. I would upload it to YouTube and it is really easy to grab the code and paste it to your post.

That is a really funny story.
