"Mom, I like the smell of pee."

Why are boys so weird?

My Favorite Body Part

Last night I had my first appointment with my kids' chiropractor in order to alleviate some knee pain during exercise. Talk about a good adjustment!
Anyways, Maggie came along for some girl time.
We planned to be back for her dance class afterwards, but the chiropractor was running behind and it's a 20 minutes drive back to Stewie. So instead, we had a much needed girls night, eating pizza at CiCi's and shopping at Old Navy. Both her choices. Matching workout pants? Check.
Before you feel bad for the boys, we left them chicken in the crock pot, though they opted for pb&j sandwiches. AND we brought them Dairy Queen. 
I did learn something new about Maggie during our time together.
"Mom, you wanna know what my favorite body part is? My legs, my feet, and my eyebrows."
"I like those, too, Mags. Why are they your favorite?"
"Well, my legs are soft and I like soft things. And my eyebrows are soft and smooth."
Haha. Love the logic.  Here's to positive body image!

Hearts

Recently, Bode clearly articulated what we all struggle with as fallen humans.
"Mom, I know I should be nice, but my heart doesn't want to!"

Talk about a teachable moment.

Well, today he applied this knowledge to our cat who was trying to play with a sticky toy that Bode got at AWANA.

"Mom, Toby's has a sinful heart because he hit me!"
