We were outside yesterday and it was way more windy than it's been in a while.  We were just sitting on a blanket looking around and Jaclyn casually made the comment, "Heavenly Father's 'wind'-ing the trees."


Jacey and Jaclyn were racing to sit in the kids' rocking chair and Jacey won.  Jaclyn started crying and complaining that she didn't get there first.  Jacey matter of factly said, "Jaclyn, you should have jamp.  I jamp." (past tense for "jump")


I was trying to convince Jacey to eat something he didn't particularly like for dinner last night.  I told him that if he wanted to be a missionary like Brett, he needed to practice eating things that he didn't always like.  I told him some of the things Brett has already had to eat.  Jacey looked disgusted and said, "Then I don't want to go on a mission anymore.  I still will, I just won't want to."


During dinner, Jacey observed, "I miss Nana's old house."  Jaclyn agreed, "Me too."  I said, " Me three."  Jacey turned to me and said, "No, you 29."  Smart alec!


Jacey, very sincerely, included in his nightly prayer the other day, "Please bless that I can find World 9.  That I can be the only one so that I can surprise everyone."  He's been a little obsessed with Super Mario Bros. lately.  


A while ago, Jaclyn was going for her first sleepover alone to Nana's house.  She was so excited and couldn't wait to go!  When Nana came to pick her up, she just wanted to get out the door and get the party started.  Jeffrey stopped her and had her come give him a big hug goodbye.  He picked her up and squeezed her tight.  She freaked out and yelled, "Daddy, don't keep me!!"
