Kendyll is in "California" mode lately and it has been so funny! (Probably because Daddy has been there twice this month....and one of her favorite places in the world is there---Disneyland!)
Two different Bible Stories have had "California" inserted into them this week, and I just wanted to write them down before I forgot them.
Sunday at dinner, she told us the story of Phillip converting the "Ethopen Man" that she learned that morning at church. So, she told us every detail (even using the imaginary flannel board in mid-air). She said "And, then the man saw the water as they were passing, and he said "Look, there is water! Baptize me here." So, Phillip "babitized" the man. Then, they got back in their wagon and went to California to see Snow White." Ummmm...no, I don't think Snow White made it in the Bible. But, I guess, it made the story more interesting to Kendyll.
Second story was Monday night at dinner, when she told us the story of Adam and Eve. She told every detail of Eve's temptation and God asking them why they ate from the tree. She finished by saying, "Then, because they made bad choices, God told them they could never come to the Garden again. And, now, they had to go live in California."
What? Oh, the funny things that a four year old comes up with....especially our four year old.
Another funny thing this week was her story she wrote at school. We were studying the Letter Z and it is also Wild West month, so to tie the two together, we had the kids write a story, starting with the sentence, "One day, a cowboy rode a zebra, and...."the zebra bunked him off. Then, he got on him again and the zebra was throwing nuts at him trying to get him out of CONTROL. (I guess that was said with emphasis) The cowboy sat down on him and slipped off. The cowboy got on him AGAIN and the zebra kicked him off. The cowboy decided to stay away from that zebra!!"
I love the creative mind that Kendyll has. Every day is a new story or a new make-believe place we live. I hope she never loses that great imagination.
Now, I have vowed that my next blog will be ALL about Carlie, because I realized today that I rarely blog about her! Poor second child...she doesn't get near the attention, even in blogland!

Those stories are way cute and funny. I can just see Kendyll saying them. It amazes me how expressive she is. I'm going to send Kylie over to your house.
I always miss you when you are not at SS! I miss you saying, "Oh, no, Traci. Not again!" As I run up the stairs. Why do I think that is SO funny? You were so concerned about me!!
I love Kendyll's imagination coupled with complete logic. "He dediced to stay away from that zebra" is such a classic Kendyll...always thinking everything through!
What a sweet, smart girl Kendyll is! I am sure that you will blog just as much about Carlie when she is 4! Your girls are so precious. It is obvious that they are treasured!
That's so funny about California in the bible! I hope that one day Bryce will comprehend the bible enough to retell stories as well as Kendyll!
I love hearing Kendyll's stories. She has such a great imagination and thinks everything through so thoroughly. I miss that sweet girl! So does Kaylee!
I look forward to Carlie stories soon:)
