Katherine-isms

 25 Reasons why I adore this girl:

 A conversation at the communion rail at church:

K: "What are you drinking, Mommy?"

Me:  "Blood.  Now let's use our whisper voice."

K: "Why are you drinking blood?"  (In a VERY loud whisper.)

Me: "Because Jesus told us to."

K: "Oh, okay."  (Now that's childlike faith for you!) 1/11

"Mommy, Buddy needs a bath.  He is really stinky.  But I don't need a bath--I only stink a little."

"Mommy, Andrew can't wear those socks! Those are Christmas socks, not epiphany socks." (Such a good little Lutheran!) 1/8/11

Katherine: "I'm sad because I didn't have a job at school today."
Daddy: You can thank Obama for that. 12/14/10

Katherine: "Me and Andrew are kids, and you and Daddy are dults".
Me: "Honey, I think it's called an adult."
Katherine: "That's what I said, a dult." 11/21/10

 While Katherine was standing around watching me put up Christmas lights outside, she leaned really close, put her hand on my shoulder and said, "Great job, Mommy! You're my good helper." 11/28/10

 Katherine was "reading" me her bedtime story tonight. She chose the Story of Easter and had it down pretty well...until they opened the tomb and saw that Jesus has turned into an angel and on the next page he turned back into a Jesus. 11/15/10

Katherine: Mommy, do you know what sound a porcupine makes?
Me: No sweetie, I don't.
Katherine: He says, "Porky, Porky, Pork! Porky, Porky, Pork!" 10/22/10

"Mom, are you ricatizing me?" (Umm....I don't know??) 10/17/10

So my daughter just ran over my son repeatedly while driving her PlaySchool car.  "He likes it!" She says with a smile.  10/11/10

 "Mommy, I'm not a brat, I'm a frog." (Oh, I beg to differ little girl...) 10/10/10

"Mommy, call me Kate. It's getting too hard to be Katherine." 8/30/10

I told Katherine that I was going to take a quick shower and I put her and Andrew in my room with the door closed. She then tells me, "Okay Mommy, but if you hear Andrew crying, he fell and bumped his head. I didn't do anything to him." (Hmm...I'm not sure about that...) 7/16/10

"Mommy, When I grow up I want to be a pink robot." (Dream big, little girl, dream big... ) 6/7/10

My daughter just said, "Okay Mommy, you be Cinderella and I'll be the Fairy God Mother. I'll wave my magic wand and send you to the ball game." (She must know I can't dance.) 5/23/10

"So God is going to pop all the popcorn for the chickens, and then we'll need a big jar to put it all in. And when the jar is full, then the farmer will tell the chickens, 'Here's the yummy popcorn!'" (Perhaps God has graduated from manna in the desert to popcorn on the farm.) 5/12/10

 

KW is a little Lutheran for sure...she now knows the Apostle's Creed, the Lord's Prayer, Luther's Morning and Evening Prayers, and several hymns by heart. Not bad for almost 3 years old! 1/12/10

We made an emergency stop on the side of the road for KW to go potty. She now wants to "pee-pee in the grass" on every occasion. 10/22/09

My nap was great! Katherine's was not--I found her finger painting in the dining room...and a trail of paint to the bathroom...super...At least she's self sufficient... 9/13/09

Katherine got a stuffed seal in the mail. I asked her what his name was..."Brown" she tells me. It's a good thing we didn't let her name her brother after all...who knows what she would have come up with... 9/1/09

Apparently the number "w" comes after "17"...8/30/09
