jada interview

me: "what do you think about mommy?"

jk: a very long pause then, "ummmmmm...i don't know."
{not a reassuring start}


i ask: "what is your favorite food that mommy cooks?"

j: "i love chicken. i love rice. mommy is a good cooker. you are not a bad cooker. you always give us food and drinks. you always are the best cooker. you do my hair. you look beautiful for me and brooke. so, i want you to come to my school."
{i guess topics are hard to handle at this age}


i ask: "why do you love jesus?"

j:"cause jesus loves you. jesus love you. then him there was nothing and he is asleep. they yell, 'wake up there is thunder.' jesus wake up. him friends were scared and he said 'stop storm' and then there was no rain. 'be still thunder.' and then there was no thunder."

jk: "i want to tell about my friends;
i love eva cause i wish she could come back. {eva moved right before christmas}
chase is new friend. ellie took a toy away from him. and she got in trouble. she took away from me. she is not letting us share. she did not give it back to me. i tell my teacher and she called her mom. and then, she got in trouble.
ellie is nice and she got a tissue for me. and she said "i love you". and she is my boyfriend.

me: "no ellie is a girl. doe mean chase?"
jk: "no ellie."
me: "you can't have a girl for a boyfriend...she's a girl, not a boy."
jk: "ok, whatever."

i love these little moments...where i learn things i didn't know before.

How cute, out of the mouths of babes! Sometimes I wish mine were still young enough to give cute answers to my questions, instead of "attitude."

Jada reminds me so much of my daughter when she was her age. She would come out with stuff that cracked us all up yet, she was so serious.

I loved that she decided she has a boyfriend.

Her smile is precious! What a sweetie!!
Don't you love how she let you know who had their mommy called from school? LOL!
Heather said…

random acts...GNO

over at GNO, there's a few of us who decided to challenge ourselves last week to perform a random act of kindness.   i talked with my girls and hubs about what we could do... we reserve some funds each month out of our giving to put towards a current or urgent need that we find.  i think it's important to let the kids see how we give as family...and they should be part of that decision too . as we were talking, and eating chinese...come on, you know there would be eating...i open my fortune cookie.  and this is it!! i was out getting a few minutes of alone time and decided to pay hubs forward by getting jiffy lube to do the oil change.  while i was there, i remembered how hard it was being a single mom.  i remembered that the little things, like oil changes, suddenly became bigger things and honestly, more expensive things.  *light bulb!!!* thomas rang me up for my oil change and asked if they had any scheduled appointments that i could pay for.  he looked at me a little odd...

sadness

on the way home from DD {{bc apparently there was NO preschool today for jk...it's no prob, really...we just rushed around and scrambled and got in the car and then when we got there and there was no school...well, there were tears...thus DD}} , there came a moment of sincere sadness in my heart. jk: " mommy, i want to look like brookie" "why sweetie? you are the perfect jada" jk: "i don't like my brown skin. i want peach skin like brookie" i just sank. does that not make ur heart want to break? a 3 yo is struggling already with her skin being different. then, this happened: brooke: "jada, god made you and he loves you. he does it all right the very first time" then, i think my heart grew three sizes . jada threw a big smile up on her face and said, "ok. god loves me" now, if we all could just do that. god loves us...he doesn't make mistakes...he makes perfect works of art. sometimes there are scratches in the art.

tuesday tribute---for tuesday

go blog yourself has been on my reading list for quite sometime...and so i really came to love little tuesday whitt and her whole sweet fam and became involved in praying for them in tuesday's battle with that stinky neuroblastoma . tuesday's parents are totally amazing...they inspire me! although tuesday went to play with jesus not so long ago, there have been so many people that are changed because of the courage and strength and honesty of the whitt family. on the day of celebration of tuesday's life, a number of folks who couldn't make it out to the funeral, took their kids on a 'wagie ride', which was one of tuesday's fav things. we all posted up our pics...shared our experiences with each other...and hugged our kiddos a little tighter. my kiddos wagie ride is here . from that precious little tuesday and her honorary wagie ride, a blog spawned...of course...and it is dedicated to nothing more than, in their words, "to keep track of lives touc
