This ones for you Justin and Jayanne!

Today in nursery Lilly and her class must have discussed Daniel and the Lions' Den. As Lilly and I were discussing what she learned in "her primary", as she calls it she was telling me about the lion.

Me: Tell me about the lion
Lilly: It was a nice lion
Me: He was a nice lion? What made him nice?
Lilly: The boy.
Me: What was the boys name? Daniel?
Lilly: No, his name was (long pause)... Cobe.

What I learned in Primary.

We are so fortunate to live where we do. Every Sunday after Sacrament meeting we usually get to see my parents heading into their Sacrament meeting on our way out. Well today my dad was asking Lilly what she learned in Primary today. She quickly responded "there was a lion, Disneyland, and Heavenly Father."

I wish I was in that class today!

Bad Place?

Last night we had the pleasure to go to a dear friend's, daughter's wedding reception.  When telling Adelle about it I asked her if she remembered George and Marianne.  She thought about it for a minute and said:

"Yeah they lived in that bad place with a swimming pool."

A little background about the bad place with a swimming pool.  When Scott and I were first married we owned a one bedroom condo in South Salt Lake.  We brought Adelle home there and were a month and half short of bringing Lilly home there.  But we had all sorts of strange and dangerous people living in our "gated" community.

The best one was the drug dealer that lived under, and next door to the South of us.  He would prop open our "gate" and allow his ethnic "nieces and nephews" to come and visit at all hours of the night.  There was one time Scott and George (our neighbor) chased down the drug "delivery girl" until the cops came to and picked her up.

So yeah it was a bad place, but we made good friends there and were so happy to see them last night!

Sad News

While waiting for Scott yesterday Lilly was telling me about the baby in her tummy.

Lilly: "Sophia has a baby, and Adelle has a baby, and I have a baby."
Me: "Where is your baby?"
Lilly: "In my tummy."
Me: "What's the baby's name?"
Lilly: "Maga."
Me: "What happened to Canasta?"
Lilly: (Very matter of factly) "She died."

Where does she get this stuff?

Who killed the chicken?

When Adelle was smaller Scott would talk about eating meat and say "this is some good dead cow". One day while grocery shopping Adelle noticed some meat in the meat cooler and asked me:

Adelle: "Mommy what is that?"
Me: "Fish."
Adelle: "Dead fish?" (as loud as can be so that surrounding shoppers could get a good chuckle)

Tonight while eating chicken legs for dinner Adelle asked the question:

"Did Daddy kill the chicken or did the store managers?"
