One of Kerry's new favorite things to do on her swingset is to "wind up" the swing then let go and see how fast she can spin.  Anyone else remember doing this? =)

 

 

It's been a while since I've shared some of the things my girl has said lately.  First I have to share some of the crazy-big words she's been using all of a sudden.  Words like:

Ridiculous

Obviously

Actually

Afterwards

Otherwise

 

And then there are the more memorial things she's come up with.  While reading the bible story where Jesus calms the storm while on a boat with the disciples.  I said that I don't know anyone else who could make the wind and the waves obey and she said " Yeah! Jesus is like, the boss of the World!"

While helping Kerry wash in a Dairy Queen restroom after she was half covered in ice-cream a waitress bombarded us with some really intrusive questions about Kerry's heritage, adoption, etc.  After we got in the car I decided I needed to talk with Kerry to see if this upset her.  She seemed pretty much unphased by it.  I then decided to discuss with her when it might be okay to speak or answer bluntly in return to questions like these.  She said "You should only be rude to bad people.  Like solicitors."  Ha!  Apparently she's still got no love for solicitors.

 

She's not even been five for 3 months yet and she's always saying "A long time ago...when I was four years old.."

 

Yesterday while on a long stroll downtown she saw some people who had rented a pedal powered rickshaw type thing.  She said "That's resourceful!"

 

And earlier this week she asked:

"Mommy, why doesn't Nana drive a school bus anymore?"

me:  "Because Nana is retired"

Kerry: " Yeah...and tired." Ha ha!
