Yes, our work here is done. 2 1/2 years of brainwashing is paying off, and I couldn't be prouder.
Other quotables in the last 24 hours:
At Publix yesterday afternoon, we saw a Middle Eastern woman in the traditional headcoverings, etc. Abby Jane POINTS at her from about 30 feet away and said, "Look, Mom, she's being Mary!"
At dinner last night, she dropped a spaghetti noodle, and I said, "It's OK, Abby Jane, you didn't mean to. He was just a sneaky guy." A minute later, she pointed to her bib and said, "Help, Mom, it's another sneaky guy!" If only she'll have that discernment as a teenager...
Just now, before going down for her nap, for some reason she said she didn't want to be by herself. I told her that she wasn't by herself, that she has her babydolls for company and that Jesus is with her all the time. She said, "No, Mom, YOU'RE with me all the time." This is true, too.

Impressive parenting, Em and Jake! We're proud with you!!
BTW, brainwashing...I mean, teaching a child about the joys of football when she is 10 yrs old is a much harder road. Teach 'em while they're young!
Happy Football Season!
