Avrie-isms

There has been an endless stream of hilarity from Avrie the last week. Here's a sampling of what I remember:

  • "Mom, I'm blinking my eyes at Nolan because I looovee him. Minnie blinks her eyes at Mickey."
  • Opening a Bible: "I was reading in chapter 2. And. All of a sudden my brother walked in my room and I cut off his face. But, I didn't eat it. Because that would be bad. Amen."
  • Supper prayer: "We're thankful for ourselves. We're thankful for our food. We're thankful for our pizza. Yum, yum, yum, amen."
  • "I don't like Wyatt cuz he picks on me." Two seconds later: "Wyatt! Pick on me! Pick on me!"
  • She's had the inclination as of late to replace Jesus with other words in "Tell me the Story". Such as meatballs. That is a favorite. I was having yet another conversation with her about how it's disrespectful and we need to leave the song about Jesus. Her next refrain? "Tell me the story of Jesus, ......*whispering*.....and meatballs too, write on my heart............"

She is hilarious! Such a little cutie too...sometimes I just want to pinch her cheeks. But she probably wouldn't like that, so I won't. But I'll still want to.

Funny... Gavyn's been doing the eye blinking thing lately and charming people with it. Maybe he got it from Avrie... or Minnie. One of the two.

Shannon said...

glad i could boost your spirits! i'd like to say that age doesn't bother me...but if my daughter was 15 and wanted to date a 25 year old...i'd NOT be okay with that!!
