In Jacey's morning prayer.  "Please bless that Daddy won't get in a car accident, so we don't have to get our 3rd car.  Cause it will take so long.  Cause Daddy would have to see which car he likes the best."

Jacey was asking Jeffrey about Satan at bedtime a few nights ago.  He asked if he was a person like us.  Jeffrey explained that he is our brother, just like Jesus is, but that he made some very bad choices in Heaven and didn't get to have a body and come to earth.  So he started out like us, but isn't the same anymore.  Jacey thought about it for a while and then said,  "So it's like our body is our treat, and because he didn't obey, Satan didn't get his treat." 

I was about to run to the grocery store one evening while Jeffrey tucked the kids in bed.  Jacey started complaining that I always went to the store and he wanted Jeffrey and I to trade jobs.  I explained that I was better at shopping because Daddy didn't always get the right things.  He told me to make a list to give Dad and he could use that.  Jeffrey told him that even with lists, he would mess things up sometimes.  Jacey replied with a smirk, "Then you can check your list.....twice."

At bedtime tonight, I was explaining to Jaclyn and Jacey that tomorrow at church, Jaclyn would get to go to Primary for the first time!  She asked if she was going to nursery still too.  I said, "No, Jaclyn, you're a big girl now, you get to go to primary!!"  She said, "Ohhh, I'm a big girl now. So I can't eat my boogies."  That's right Jaclyn, that too. :)
