The things they say

Baby G: Mama, Dada, kitty, baby, Oh!

Me: Bell, how did you get that scratch on your face?
Bell: Bats
Me: Bats? Where did you find bats?
Bell: In the dark... they scratched me.
Me: Where in the dark?
Bell: In the dark bathroom... they got me.
Me: We don't have bats in the bathroom.
Bell: (cheesy, beaming smile)

Lady: (on the phone) Cinderella? How are you doin? Did your two sisters rip your pretty pink dress? How horrible! Jasmin? Let me talk to Jafar. Jafar? Did you turn into a dragon with yellow fire and sharp teeth? And you bite us?

Bell: Let me talk on the phone, I want to call Sleeping Beauty. Sleeping Beauty, did Lifcent turn into a dragon with green and yellow fire and your castle fell down on you and you got hurt? Do you have an owie? I get you a bandaid right soon.

And I said I would never let them watch television...

Tonight's bedtime prayers:
Bell: Heavenly Father, thank you for Bell and Lady and thank you for the picture of us hugging on the wall and for my letters for my name and my letter "I" and for Lady's letters on the wall. And we thank you for this day. In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen. Mommy! I said a prayer for the things on my wall, for my letters on the wall and my picture.

I love how they are grateful for the small things-- such examples to me.
