Conversation today

(rainy day after lunch)

Mommy: After I put this laundry away, we are going to play....hide and seek!

Kiddos: Yay!!!! (running around living room)

Allia: Mommy, can we play base hide and seek where you count on the base and then everyone who hides tries to run and touch it?

Mommy: Well, that is a little dangerous for inside...I don't really like you girls to be running really fast through the house.

Allia: Well, Daddy lets us do it. He likes to play like that because it makes us happy. He likes to make us happy...we have a fun Daddy!

Mommy: You do have a fun Daddy! Some Daddy's just come home and sit around reading newspapers and...

Allia: Yeah, and watching TV. Not our Daddy. He loves us soooo much.

Mommy: Yep, he does!

Allia: Mommy, you picked a good Daddy for us when you got married. If I get married I have to pick a good Daddy too...one that loves me more than our Daddy does.

Mommy: Yes, that is right!
(Austin has been telling her if she is called to marriage some day that she has to find a man who loves her more than him. :-) Early programming!)
