The Kids Keep Me Laughing

The kids have kept me laughing in school today. First, I was doing multiplication flashcards with Cael and he was using funny accents for his answers, switching from Southern, to French, to British. At one point, when Cael was in southern accent mode, Ellie walked through the room and exclaimed, "Great now he's speaking Farmer!" She was dead serious too and then wanted to know why my Aunt, who lives on an orchard, doesn't speak farmer.

At another point as Ellie was again walking through the room during flashcard time (Cael and Ian each have about 100 flashcards to go through), I asked Cael what 7 x 6 was to which Ellie (6 yrs old) sighs and says 42- as if the entire world just KNOWS that. Even Cael was laughing at the way she said it. How she knows that- I have NO idea, other than just paying attention during flashcard time for her brothers. If she learns that easily, yikes! I have my work cut out for me!   

Praise the Lord for days when I can see the humor in my Little Blessings!
