Meagan quote of the week

Chris very humbly asked Meagan the other day, "What can daddy do to be a better daddy?"

Meagan replied, "I don't know dad...you don't spend enough time with me for me to answer that question."

Wow, talk about brutal. (I might add that Chris happens to spend a lot of time with the girls and frequently asks us for input on how he can be a better father, husband, etc.)

And here's a little bit of NiNi to entertain you...

We were having a family devotional about the "little lost sheep", which included a special emphasis on how special the sheep was to the shepherd. We used marshmellows with little chocolate eyes as the sheep and acted out how we would take care of them (i.e. keeping them safe, giving them food, a soft bed). After carrying the marshmellow sheep to his special "bed", NiNi picked him up and said "Bye-bye sheep!" and crammed the whole thing in her mouth.

I doubt that the "good shepherd who eats his sheep" was the image that Jesus was going for on that one.

I love Meagan's zingers :)

Yes~we are going through the growing out phase. It's taking forever!! I'll admit there's days I'm ready to cut her bangs myself!! But, I'm holding steady...we'll get there.
