My brother called me this morning with a little YouTube link to brighten my morning. We watched this video together while we were on the phone and I laughed so hard I cried. Then I watched it again with Dave and laughed all over again. This video is pure awesomeness.
And also, lemme just say: it's possible that this will offend some of you dog lovers out there. But, I'll have you know, I am also a dog lover. It's just that...really?? Ok, uh-uh. BIG uh-uh. And also, as Dave pointed out to me this morning, it's my blog and I can make fun of whatever I want to. So I am today. Here it is--you can watch it with your jaw dropped open like I did:
PS--Doesn't anyone realize, also, that "dog" and "god" having similar spelling is only an English thing?? In every other language...riiiiight.
Thoughts of a passionate, quick-to-laugh, often-anxious, hamsterwheeling brain.

And I quote:
Elijah: (running in from outside) "I have to go poo!"
Me: "Ohhh-kay. Sounds like a good plan."
Elijah: (pausing at the bathroom door to smile coyly and wiggle his eyebrows slightly at me) "It is. It's one of the greats."
Malachi: (sadly, after David left to get in the shower) "Daddy? Daddy. Mo' (more)."
Me: "You want more of Daddy?"
Malachi: (hanging his head dejectedly) "Daddy. Mo'."
Me: "Dane, I love you to the moon and back."
Dane: (looking me right in the eye, with words just pouring out of him) "Me too, Mom. I love you. I love you more than butterflies and I love you more than playing outside and I love you more than caterpillars and I love you more than a toy and I love you more than all my toys." (then he just hopped and skipped outside)
Elijah: (eating a banana) "The best banana I ever had was....February 22nd."
Me: (laughing) "How do you remember it was February 22nd?"
Elijah: (sincerely) "Well...I don't remember EXACTLY, but I know it was in the 20's. Man, that banana tasted like CANDY."
Haven: (with an oh-well kind of smile and a shrug) "Today at school Ms. Hagood asked what my talent was and I said my talent was getting hurt, 'cuz...it is. I do that a LOT."
Elijah: (coming to me randomly, before church) "Mom, who's Uncle Benny?"
Me: (a little confused) "We don't have an Uncle Benny."
Elijah: "No. Benny."
Me: "We don't have an Uncle Benny."
Elijah: (really emphasizing the words and speaking very loudly, like I'm not hearing him) "No. BEN-NY!!!"
Me: "Yeah. I got it. I don't know what you're talking about. We don't have an Uncle Benny."
Elijah: (mystified) "We don't?? Well...THAT'S a bummer." (and then he just walked away)

I can't believe you would make fun of something written and sung in such reverence.
Can I get a Bow Wow.
Yeah, was that supposed to be funny? I mean, I smiled a few times, but did not laugh until I cried, like you. Maybe it was a reverent sarcasm that is above my level of humor. But I did enjoy it! Very creative!
Random. Who comes up with stuff like that? I laughed too.
Wow. I don't know what else to say. Are they really comparing God's love to a dog's love? Really? And sung with such sincerity, too...
Lindsey,
Seriously the magna tiles will change your life. They don't get put away. Ever. They just stay on the rug in our family room and they are the first thing my boys do in the morning. They don't have any small pieces for Dane to choke on..the box just says "fun for 3 and up". Haven will like them too...Posey does!
You have been on my mind lately..what with my delivery coming up. I don't have your new number though..do you have the old ward directory? Give me a call sometime will you? I could use some of your positive thinking!
