Megan's Revelation.

So as I was putting the girls to bed tonight Megan was asking a million questions about Mothers day and who it is for. She told me that she thought it should be for all girls. I told her I agreed. So tomorrow will be a celebration of all things GIRL. She said that we should celebrate Moms, Sisters, Daughters, Aunts, Nieces, Cousins, and babies... not sure where that last one came from but perhaps it is because she loves babies.

So then we talked about girls and all the different relationships we could make.... i.e.... mom, daughter, grand daughter....

I said someday she would get to be a mother and a wife. She giggled at the thought. And then I said well someday you will be able to be a grandma...she gave me the strangest look. I just looked at her smiled and said Yeah... you will be Gramma Megan.

Oh my goodness. She laughed so hard I thought she might passout. She found that so funny.
She just kept saying. Come over to Gramma Megans house. I will make cookies. and then the laughter. hahahaha
I wish I could have recorded that. she was barely able to breathe.

The laughter continued on until she drifted to sleep.
I love her. She is so funny.

Amy's Declaration.

So we spent the day playing in the sun at the plant sale at the high school. We have been talking about birthdays and mother's day and all the celebrations that this month holds. Amy said very firmly and quite loudly..."MOMMY, I WUB YOU!!!" I was caught off gaurd by her loud deep voice and serious face. I said "oh, and I love you too Amy." She smiled and went back to playing. more talk of mothers and mother's day with Megan occured and then she yelled "Mommy I don't love you Mother's Day!"
Again... unsure of what to make of that I said "okay. you don't have to, but I think you do love me."
She said "NO! Mommy, I wub you. I ....sigh.... I do wub you humpback whale not Mothers Day. Mothers day is little. I love you BIG. I love you gray whale, humpback whale, blue whale..." I said " awwww, I love you too. Thank you Amy. You are a good girl and I love you humpback whale too." She smiled and was happy with that.

Just before bed time she climbed up into my lap and said Mommy, sigh...
She looked at me and then said my heart is a little bit sad tonight. I asked her why and she said cause it is stuck in here (as she pointed to her chest) and it wants out. I said ... oh... why?
She said my heart wants to get out of here so that your heart can hold it.

Talk about a sweet little girl.
I told her that I would hold her while she held her heart and that she was always in my heart. That my heart belongs to her and to Megan. She told me I could keep a little piece for myself.

Sweet, sweet girl.
