Wisdom of My 2 Year Old

This morning has been one of those days where you'd secretly like others to think are "typical" days in your household. Kissed the husband as he left for work, individual quality time with both the kids--full of giggling and kisses, and the sky showed promise of producing sun.

I had just sat the kids down for lunch and was heading upstairs with a load of laundry (I feel so domestic just typing this) when my son stopped me in my journey.

Makai: "Mama"
Me: "Yes" ( I stopped, turned and looked at him) It'd appear as though I was an EXCELLENT listener, but really I just didn't want to have to come back downstairs if he'd asked for an out of reach item in the kitchen.

Makai: "Jesus is the Bread of Life."
Me: (HUGE SMILE) Yes He is.

My thoughts: "Wow! Your nursery leaders are good!

All joking aside, these little sponge-like pint sized human beings that live in the our household are actually soaking up some good stuff. Moments like this make all the prepared FHE's, scripture study's and answers to the question, "Why?" for the millionth time worth it!

As we all know, tomorrow is another day. So, I wouldn't be surprised if I blog about the husband rushing out to work, one kid waking up screaming while the other is blowing chunks. Meanwhile I count out a nutritious portion of goldfish crackers and chocolate milk for lunch. Door bell rings? No, I wasn't doing laundry, but I'd sure be shoving it in the nearest closet so the poor unsuspecting visitor won't see. :) And to add to the probable scenario my son would interrupt me in front of company to tell me the dog pooped on the floor and my daughters taste-testing it at the moment.

This hasn't happened before, but somehow with the day I've had today, I could see it in my future :) Until then, I'm enjoying serenity now.
