ETYMOLOGY: Latin candidus, glowing, white, pure, guileless.
Yes, there was some T.V. watching going on. So sue me. (Thanks Lisa, that is a great line--I'll have to remember to use it more myself).
And the Lucifer conversations go on. Malia informed me today that she thinks Dallin, our neighbor boy, follows Lucifer. I tried to teach her that boys are just like that (as far as playing with swords and guns and stuff) and that I'm sure he's trying really hard to not follow that mean old Lu, even though he's constantly coming at her with his "boy toys."
She also asked me today, "If the church is Heavenly Father's house, then why isn't he ever there?" Oh boy. If I could record all the questions I get bombarded with everyday...just today that I can think of..."Mom, what's inside of us?" "Mom, when I get big and get to be a mommy can I carry Tessa around?" "Mom, what does Daddy do with his students all day?" "Mom, what does this word spell?"--pointing to about 15 letters on the fridge she had put together-- oh, and another very thoughtful one--"Mom, what does heaven look like?" I'll be honest and say I'm really feeling under qualified for this position. I can only imagine when she starts bringing home calculus. OH BOY.

I'm nervous for all that to start! I love the red in your house! Red is my favorite decorating color, although I've noticed I tend to use it in every room, so I'm trying to broaden my horizons. I've been waiting weeks for you to post a blog again, so you made my day!
Wow, little miss smartie pants. I wonder what she'll be when she grows up. The only questions my kids ask are, "why can't I?" or "Can I mom, PLEASE!?". Cute kiddies. HA!
i love malia's glasses. super cute. from the questions she is asking, it sounds like she really is a little intellectual. Good luck coming up with answers. i am definitely not prepared for that stage. :)
Have you ever gotten Malia and Marcus together for lunch and a little devil discourse? Malia could probably teach Marcus a thing or two about keeping a Cafe Rio burrito off his face.
Biff, that would be entertaining! Good idea.
Parenting is for sure the most challenging thing you will ever do, but also the most rewarding!
Your girls are darling and obviously very smart with all their questions.
I know you are a great mom. I always knew you would be.
