The things they say...and doughnuts

Luke has said a couple classics lately I was just writing down in his journal. Maybe they are only funny to me because, you know, I'm the mama, but I thought they were worth a share.

One day the kids were talking about brothers and sisters. Luke said, "Hansel and Gretel are brother and sister, Leo and Annie (characters from Little Einsteins) are brother and sister, Luke and Halle are brother and sister, and Mommy and Daddy are brother and Sister!"
Hmmm. Still not quiet sure how to explain that one!

All the sudden he's been getting very dramatic with us when he gets in trouble. Like the other night Cory had to reprimanded him for something (I can't remember what) and Luke told him, "I don't want to live with you anymore!"
So Cory asked, "Then where are you going to live?"
Luke said, "My room!"

Ever since Halloween Luke and Halle like to play pretend that they are witches and find wands around the house (could be anything...a hanger, toy, wooden spoon, basically anything long and skinny works for them) and "cast spells" and pretend to change each other into different animals and make each other bark like a dog or chirp like a bird and whatnot. Then there was a Halloween Little Einsteins they watched where a witch casts an "evil spell" on someone and the kids have to sing a song to help break it. They got really into that episode (you've probably caught on from this post that Little Einsteins provides a lot of the TV entertainment in our household).
So with those things in mind, the other day after church Luke and Halle were running around the house playing. They must have been playing witches or pretending to cast spells because all the sudden I heard Luke say, "Halle, you can break the evil spell by saying, 'Glory to God' or 'Jesus from Heaven!''
I was pretty impressed he picked up that much from church that day!

p.s. What I wouldn't give for one of these babies. But I can't, because I'm on a sugar detox. More on that later :).
