Piper (obsessed with her new pink suitcase): Mama, how did Santa know I didn’t have a suitcase?
Her mom: Oh, well, he’s just smart that way.
Piper: That is just so SWEET of him!
*****
Piper: Mama, does God have a missus?
*****
Piper (standing on a chair, holding her dad’s face in her hands as he’s leaving for work): Remember, Daddy. Change da world.
I love how she thinks about others, this kid. How many kids think of Santa as sweet? How many kids wonder if God’s alone or not? How many kids think about changing the world??
Okay. I’m totally biased, but she’s always blowing me away.
Kids are just awesome. Really. Mine, theirs, and everyone else’s.

A couple of years ago:
Sis: what should I make for dinner, O?
Olivia: Make chicken and rice.
Sis (wonderine where THAT came from): Chicken and rice? Who do you know that makes that?
Olivia: God does. He makes it for his wife.
Okay…
We Love Piper So Much!
Awwww! I’m so glad you’re saving all of this. She’s gonna love it when she gets older.
RTG — Yep. So true.
Sal — That is so cute. Like, naturally God would do that. So matter of fact.
Oh, oh! I have a cute kid story. My brother has a nephew (his brother in law’s kid). This kid really, really likes “Take 5” candy bars. (My brother and sister-in-law went to Sam’s Club and bought him one of those big cases of like 24 or 48 bars for Christmas).
The little boy commented: “If God was going to come down and make a candy bar, this is the one He’d make.”
hahahahahaha.
Hahahaha, ricki!
