Tonight's Jesi-isms

Tonight as I was tucking Jesi in, she drew me close to her and whispered, "Mom, I'm going to tell you a little secret. You're a much better cleaner than Dad. Cause you get up and clean a lot and he just sits there."

*****

Tonight's prayer: "Heavenly Father, we thank thee for this day. We thank thee for our family. Please help us to be nice and to be good and have a good sleep. Please help us to have a good day at school tomorrow. And just so you know, you are the bestest Heavenly Father in the whole world! And you help us find stuff when we lose it. And please help us to keep our house cleaner so we will stop losing stuff. In the name of Jesus Christ, amen." (Apparently this girl really has cleaning on her mind-- and who can blame her with the state of our house right now?)

And my favorite-- as I was leaving her room-- "Mom, I am so smart, amn't I?"

  5. You am the smartest girl I know, Jesi. I willn't ever change my mind about that. (one of my kids' made-up contractions)
