Emlyn-isms

We were in the van this morning taking Billy to work, and the girls were discussing an adult friend who is going back to college. I asked Bayley what she was going back to school to do, to which she answered "I don't know." Emlyn immediately piped up with, "Homework!"

:-D

Billy then reminded us of the time when Emlyn was *very* small, back when Bro. Phil was still our pastor, and he said, during a sermon, "God will deliver us..." Without missing a beat, Emlyn added (and not especially quietly...:-*)) "Pizza??"

That brought to mind our conversation last night. Our children are very proud of their Italian heritage (through my no-doubt-about-it Italian mother-in-law :)). I realized last night that perhaps Billy's told a few too many "mob" stories, though. We were talking about going out to lunch today with Kathy, Kaitlyn, and Joshua, for our "end-of-summer celebration". Em, the shyest and quietest of my children, put her hands on her hips, stuck out her chin, and said, "Well, I'll tell you this right now: If Joshie kisses me tomorrow, I'm going to take out his *whole* family!"

Ack! :-O Guess I need to warn Kathy about that one. ;-) (And yes, there is a history there!)

Never a dull moment!
