WHY TIDBITS?

I am constantly laughing at all the funny things my kids say.  Sometimes it's only a couple words, sometimes it's just how they sound when they are talking, but I ALWAYS think, "I need to remember this".   I've tried in the past to post them on my blog, but I haven't found a great way to do it.  So, the idea of Tidbits evolved.  A blog dedicated to the daily things my kids say.  
Some posts may not make sense, they may not even be post worthy, but for some reason or another, they seemed important to me at the time.  I hope by doing this it will preserve a part of this amazing time in their lives into my memory for years to come. 
If you want to join Tidbits... email me and I'll set you up so you can post as well.  I'm hoping this turns into a really fun blog we can all enjoy!!

Dare Devil

Avery age 2 1/2

She was climbing up on a ladder and she said, "Mommy... I dangeous"

My Hero

Avery age 2 1/2

Avery, Kaden and I were playing in his room the other morning. Kaden came up to us with his sword and Avery quickly jumped on my lap and said, "I save you mommy!" She grabbed my neck and held on tight repeating "I save you, I save you". When Kaden came back towards us with the sword, Avery raised her hand towards him and said in a mean deep voice, "SILENCCCCCCE"

I still can't figure out where that came from, but I about peed my pants laughing so hard.

Abby had a sub in primary on Sunday. This was our conversation at night before bed:

Abby: Daddy, I had a new teacher today in sunbeams
Tyler: Oh ya, who was it?
Abby: It was Grayson's mom
Tyler: Who is Grayson? (they are fairly new in the ward)
Abby: He is the little boy in my class. You know, the one who is a little bald

Sunday's

Garrett Age 4 1/2

Last Night (Sunday) we were sitting out by the fire pit and Cory (our neighbor) came out for a little to talk.  When he went inside his blinds were open and his tv was on.  Garrett said the following:

Garrett:  Uh oh, Cory is watching baseball.
Mom:  Why do you say uh oh Garrett?
Garrett: Uh oh Cory is watching baseball..
Mom: Why uh oh??
Garrett:  Because today is Sunday.

Our kids only watch Jesus movies (the kids call them) on Sunday...can you tell from Garrett's comment:)

Hulk

Garrett was helping Eric carry in some of our food storage tonight.  He carried over 10 bags at 25 pounds each.  Here is a conversation they had:

Eric:  Garrett you are really strong
Garrett:  I know, I think I'm like Hulk, I think Hulk is that strong.
