"Mom can we listen to hannahtizer?" That is what my girls call Hanna Montana.

I am getting educated in Miley Cyrus. The girls are growing up.

Out of the mouths of Babes on Monday

If you ever go skiing and hear someone singing Europe's song 'The Final Countdown' you can be sure the Steigers are on the hill. Nate is my child who lives in his own world most of the time. He doesn't ski on trails that is too boring. Not Nate. He prefers skiing on the little paths between trees. He doesn't exactly ski quietly either. He will spice it up with LOUD singing with 'The Final Countdown' in his repetoire. Thanks uncle Vittee for Lego Rock Band. That is one way to introduce my kids to rock music.

So next time you hear it while you are out skiing the Steigers are on the mountain.

I do not know about you but I do write down the little nuggets of wisdom that comes out of my darling children's mouths (thinking about embarrassing them later on). Anyway I was thinking it would be fun to share these little bits of wisdom with you. I am sure we all have tons to share and since Mondays seem to be gloomy days what a better way to make each other smile. So here I go: A few weeks ago on Sunday I was sick and stayed home with Jo. Emma wanted to go to church with the boys. Fil teaches the boy's Sunday school class right before church. It is a little class all boys but that did not stop Emma. She left the house in the morning armed with princess coloring pages and every pink crayon she could find. She promised to sit quietly during the class. She did a great job until Fil started asking questions and it ended up like this:

Fil: "What does 'carpenter' work with?"

Boys: "wood".

Fil: "What do masons work with?"

Quiet

Emma looked up from her coloring smiles at her daddy and said:

"rocks".

That's my girl. Only 4 but a smart little cookie I am already having a hard time keeping up with her.
