Elijah Quotes of the Week

Our silly bean continues to crack us up with the things he says. Here are the thoughts he's been having in the last week . . .

• Elijah asked me where his Lightning McQueen car was and I said I didn't know. Then I asked him where he had seen it last. Eli just looked up at me, shrugged, and said, "I don't have a clue." That phrase (appropriately used, I might add) coming out of a two year old mouth is quite hilarious. And the inflection he used told me immediately where he had heard that phrase - from Grandma Koorndyk! He sounded just like her when he said it!

• Eli and I were playing last week and he stopped, looked at me, then scooted over and hugged me and said, "Mommy, you're my best buddy." There's one to melt your heart. Guess all my hours invested in trains and cars are paying off. :)

• We were at BSF last Wednesday and as we were leaving Eli pointed to the sanctuary part of the church and asked what was in there. He's never in that part of the church (his classroom is in a different area) and I figured it wouldn't do any harm to show him, so we headed in. Eli stopped, looked around, and said, "Wow, there's lots of cool things in here!" We poked around for a bit and then as we were leaving Eli said that he, "want go church Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, Sunday!" I questioned whether he wanted to go to church all those times, but he said, "Yes!" We'll see if he's singing a different tune when he's a teenager!
  

• Jon, Eli, and I were in the office, and Jon was looking for a picture of Eli as a baby to show him (we had just been talking about how Eli used to be a baby and now was a big boy). We weren't on our computer (which is in our room) so Jon headed to our blog to see if a picture was still there. As he typed in the address he was talking to himself and saying "jon and missy dot blogspot dot com, " when Eli piped in and said, "No, go mommy daddy dot com!" We didn't even know what to say we were laughing so hard. Our son the internet expert!
