Some "Jonah Quotes" from the last two years...

May 10, 2009 - "When you were little was it the old days?...or when your Mom was little was it the old days?".
I then asked him what he thought, thankfully he replied, "When your Mom was little".
(I am just not ready to be part of the "old days")

"I think girls are more specialer than boys...that's why they get to have the babies".

9/12/07 - "Mom can you go up in space with me when I get older?, because I don't know how to get up and down, so can you go with me?"

8/24/07 - "Do you have the army's phone number?". "Can you teach me the Army's phone number in case of an emergency?".

8/23/07 - "Does it hurt when you die?". "Will you ask Jesus for me?".

After visiting the Jordan River Temple - "I miss Jesus, I wish we were up in Heaven with Him". Does that make Him happy?". "Do you wish you were up in Heaven with Him?".

April 12, 2009 We were reading in the Book of Mormon about the Liahona. - "We need to go buy one of those". "We should go to the Church store and get one". "Liahona's are really good".

"Do you know that flies love garbage? That's why they fly around stinky people. They like the smell".

"Girls always get to be the boss, because they want to be". "It's not fair, they always get to be the boss...you're the boss Mom".

5/29/08 - "When I grow up I don't know what my kids are going to look like or what toys I should buy them".

Praying- "...Bless the Holy Ghost will be inside everyone in the whole world..."
"...Please bless my pirate on Pirates of the Carribean (computer game)
that he will get to level 32..."

12/20/08 - "My Mom dates my Dad practically everyday".

"Hey Mom when we play can I just call you sidekick?".

Jonah on why Mom's were made: "So kids could have joy & happiness, so kids could be happy and not sad".

On how Mom's were made: "The Holy Ghost, and Mom's are made out of temples, skin temples...cuz everyone is made out of temples".

When I told him that one little kid said that Mom's were made with a stamp of mean:

"They said a stamp of mean?!...No, cuz you're really nice and beautiful".

"Who is Jesus' Grandma?".

Trick of the Day

Everyday when we leave the gym, we pass by the bike bars where people can park their bikes. Jonah a few months back started the "Trick of the Day", which is some new trick he does on the bike bars. Everyday he tries to make it different. But each day when we pass he'll say,"Look Mom trick of the day". Then I will usually comment with what a great trick etc. It is quite fun to watch and each day he gets a little bit more creative. Last night Chase & I went to the gym without Jonah because he wanted to stay home and play with his cousins. Anyways, as we are leaving the gym to go back home, little Chase runs to the bike bars and starts hanging from them (which is basically all he can do because he is so little compared to them); saying with his little voice that doesn't quite pronounce the words right, "look Mom trick of the day". But instead I think it sounded a little more like "Wook Mom chick a da day". How I love and look forward to the "Trick of the Day".
