The Things They Say

I'm going to start a regular posting about The Things They Say, because seriously, the kids at the daycare just make want to laugh SO hard sometimes. So whenever I have a good chunk of The Things They Say, I'll post them up, because hopefully they will make you laugh too!


Savannah (3) after eating an english muffin: "This is GELICIOUS!" as in good+delicious. She told me that it really is a word too.


Jed (3) said to me after I asked him if he used soap while he washed his hands. "Yesh, like when I shaw my daddy take a shower, he ushesh shoap on hish back." I hoped the story ended there, but just to be sure I rudely interrupted and said "okay Jed lets dry your hands"


Savannah (3) after I gave her some apple juice: "Does this have red dye in it? Because I am REALLY allergic to red dye". This probably doesn't read as funny as it was, she was just so dramatic.


Jasmine (6) said to Savannah (3) "Her is going to be blue" and Savanna said "No, the yellow one is she's"


Savannah (3) said to me as I itched my eye: "Don't pick your nose, it will bleed!". She was sitting on the other side of me and couldn't tell that my finger wasn't actually up my nose, just along side of it.


Remy (3) said to me after I asked her if she was done going potty "No, I have lots and lots and LOTS more..."


Savannah (3) asked me "Do you want to come to my house to have a sleep over?" I said, "That would be fun, but you have to ask your mom first." Not expecting anything to come of it. But on the following Monday her mom says to me "Savannah asked if Miss Anna could come to our house to have a sleep over." I couldn't believe she remembered and actually asked her mom.


Morgan (4) while playing "get Miss Anna ready for the ball" said to me: "You look ugly, we have to fix your hair" ...that was after they had pulled out random pieces from my ponytail and made my hair into one snarly mess.
Savannah (3) told her mom "Miss Anna taught me how to keep my nose warm like this" *covers nose with two fingers* "She is the best Miss Anna, I know, she really is"

~As you can tell, Savannah is one of the more...vocal, ones.

(I don't have favorites either, no not me, but if I did...)

New York-ifide!

My car has been such a blessing to me, I've had it for almost a year already, but it still seems new to me! As September approached and my tabs were about to expire it was time for me to decide: Do I New York-ify the Sebring ?

870.AGD...

...no longer.

It's quite a process to New York-ify a car. Especially since the systems are run differently. Here in NY every car that is driven on the road has to pass a car inspection. Which is good, because now everyone knows the comfort I know. I've been blessed with a Dad who gives me comfort driving a car that I know is safe to drive, NY requires it. Too bad, I can't have the best inspector do my inspection.

During the car inspection, The Sebring had the following checked:

~Seat Belts~
~Brakes~
~Steering~
~Suspension~
~Frame~
~Tires~
~Lights~
~Glass~
~Windshield Wipers~
~Mirrors~
~Horn~
~Fuel Leaks~
~Emissions Test~

I passed, rather my car passed! The inspector said "Whomever had it last took great care of it" I was proud to talk about my dad who had fixed 'er up and made it look as good as it did. Since the person who had it before me, ran the car out of oil...not exactly great care!

Thanks Dad, you're the best! Whenever there was a problem with my car, you practically dropped everything and took a look, talk about ideal service!

In the mist of getting my car New York-ified it was also time to New York-ify my driver's license. Not just because I would eventually have to, but my MN license was soon to expire. I wasn't as nervous for my car to pass the inspection, as I was for me to pass the eye exam. I don't know why, but I always get very nervous when I have to read that thing! Something about the quietness of the DMV office, my voice reading over the letters that I might say wrong, and the line of people hearing me. Needless to say, I passed. Being so, the DMV lady took my MN license, which I was very sad about ...I wanted to keep that. Not only did she take my MN license, she gave me this:

A paper I.D. Talk about feeling like I'm 15! Man it's been so long since I had my driver's permit, but it sure brought back memories!
Then the day before my 21st birthday I received this in the mail:

An official New York Driver's License! I signed the papers and I'm a donor! See the little heart? Also, in NY they don't put their weight in the list of info...I thought that was strange, but I guess not necessary.

So, I guess you could say I'm all New York-ified!

Did I seriously just write a post about me car?

Painting in the Sky

Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise;

His greatness no one can fathom.


One generation will commend your works to another;
they will tell of Your mighty acts.

They will speak of the glorious splender of your majesty,


and I will meditate on your wonderful works.

They will tell of the power of your awesome works,
I will proclaim Your great deeds.

They will celebrate Your abundant goodness
and joyfully sing your righteousness.
