NO SMOKING.

Last week we were in a public restroom and saw a "No Smoking" sign and Corbin asked what it meant. I told him it was a "No Smoking" sign. It means you can't smoke in the bathrooms.

Apparently I should have taken the opportunity to explain what "smoking" means.

Yesterday we were sitting on the couch watching a little TV and Corbin said. "So can I smoke in the house or what?"

Um...

What did you just say?

I thought I heard him correctly, but couldn't believe what he was asking me.

He said, "well, there's no "No Smoking" sign in our house!

Woops. My bad. better print this out and post it in a conspicuous place in my home. Just so my 4-year-old is clear on the house rules.

Prayers and Puking

I woke up this morning to bright blue eyes and three-day-old pigtails. I slept on the couch last night because I was up all night puking...for the second night in a row. Jenalyn was hovering over me as I woke up. She said the sweetest words I've ever heard. "I prayed for you mommy. That you would feel better and not be sick anymore."

*sigh*

My daughter prayed for me. Unprompted. She said a prayer. By herself. Prayed that her mommy would feel better. I've never felt more full.
