The Things Kids Say

I've never been very good at writing down all the funny little things my kids say. I will laugh about it for days, then it leaves my mind and I forget. All I know is, my kids say the funniest things!
Recently Marchus has been coming up with so many funny things I can't keep up.
I'm hoping that by writing some of them here, I won't forget them so easily!

Last week, we were driving in the car and this was what he asked:
Marchus: "Mom, you know that place called the middle of nowhere? Where is that?"
Me: "Uh...there are are lots of places that are called the middle of nowhere. It's what we call a place if it's very far away from other places."
Marchus: "Oh. Well, you know that place called the middle of nowhere? Is there a temple there?"
Me: laughing..."nope."

Over the last week or so, we will be outside or in the car (again) and he will ask me these questions:
"Hey mom, does Heavenly Father live on that cloud?"
"Mom, where is heaven at? Could we go on vacation there?"
"Mom, does Heavenly Father like to go swimming too?"
He must think I'm dumb half the time because I sit there with a smile on my face, but don't know exactly how to answer him....he's so fun!

Lastly, and the most hysterical by far this week, was when he was snuggling with me in bed one morning. He leaned up and cocked his head at me, with a funny expression on his face. Then, he pointed to my chest and said, "why do you sleep with those things on every night?"

I love the things kids say...it keeps me laughing, thinking, and on my toes, DAILY!
