Yup, Parker-isms!

Parker's prayer:
"Thank you that I could eat the food with protein and thanks that we don't eat the food with poison."
After I said, what food has poison and he said, "Apples?"

I told the kids that they will be going to the Meikle's house tomorrow night so Dad and I could go on a date. (The Meikle's have 4 girls and no boys. Two of their daughters are each Gracie and Parker's age. Lydia, the one that is Parker's age is a bit pushy with him apparently, but cute as can be, and wants him to play Barbie's all the time. She does let him be Ken though!) So I asked Parker if that was okay and he said, "Yeah, I guess it's okay if Lydia ropes me into playing Barbie's." Then he says in an embarrassed and disgusted voice, "But she makes me play kiss with them...and they're naked!"

He tells me all the time, "My heart loves you."

Phil went Christmas shopping for me tonight and when he came home, his smell was a dead giveaway at what he had been shopping for! I told him, hmmmm.....wonder what you were shopping for! Haha! Obviously it was perfume. A little while later Parker was sitting on Phil's lap and Parker said to Phil, "You smell like rotten chicken!" Haha! Hysterical! I said to Phil you might want to rethink the scent you chose!

Phil: "Parker, it's supposed to snow 12-18 inches in the next 3 days! Do you know what that means?"
Parker: "Yeah, ummm.....ummmm....it means 3 pounds....3 days.........I'm pretty sure."

He tells me all the time, "I love you higher than Jesus."

Parker's prayer:
Please help us to say butrous (pronounced beutrous) words...even though we don't know what butrous means.

So often in Parker's prayers I'll be squinting ever so slightly so that I can see Parker and Gracie's faces and to make sure they are kneeling, folding their arms, and closing their eyes. But by doing this, I usually see Gracie in the corner of my eye giving me this puzzling look about something Parker just said. I'll see her smile and her shoulder's moving up and down as if she is chuckling about what he just said and at that moment all of my strength to keep my giggles inside comes to an abrupt end with a burst out of laughter. When this happens, Parker seems a bit confused after his prayer as to why we are giggling because he is dead serious in his prayers. I love those moments!

Me: "Parker, what do you want for lunch?"
Parker: "A cheese melted up sandwich."
Me: "A grilled cheese sandwich?"
Parker: "No, a cheese melted up sandwich."

Parker decided to do his own hair and he was SO proud how good it looked!

Parker's prayer:
Thank you so that we could trust Jesus and not trust the bad guys. Thank you so that we could be good zamples. Thank you so they trespass against us.

Parker: "I don't even know what President's Day is. Oh, I think it's like that show on TV, General Grievous (from Star Wars). No, it rhymes with General Grievous. You know Mom?! The show with the presidents on it?"

Me: (In deep thought thinking what in the world could President's Day have to do with General Grievous from Star Wars and what TV show rhymes with General Grievous...DING DING....I think!)
"Are you talking about General Conference?"

Parker: "Yeah, that's it!"
