Lessons learned from conversations with Sam


FIRST CONVERSATION
Me: (pointing to a picture of two girls) if these two are not brothers, they are ______ ?
Sam: sisters!  You and Aunt Morgan are sisters. (then he started singing the song from White Christmas)  Sisters, sistersssss...

Lesson:  Sam can sing real well


SECOND CONVERSATION
Stephen:  that's dumb
Sam:  Dad,  don't say that or else Lars will say it too!

Lesson: Careful what you say around kids


THIRD CONVERSATION
Me: do you want to eat some of this?
Stephen:  ew! I'd rather eat my thumb.
Sam: (laughing) No, then Heavenly Father will be mad at you.

Lesson:  Take care of your bodies


FOURTH CONVERSATION
Me: if you could have any wish in the whole wide world what would you wish for?
Sam: uh, my wish is Lars's wish.
Me: what would Lars with for?
Sam: a baby sister


Lesson:  Don't contact "Make A Wish Foundation" anytime soon

  1. Love that you are writing about some of those young conversations. You forget when your children grow older. It will be fun to read back on these.
