It's a miracle!

Jackson is holding a piece of the play nativity set---emma took it and walked across the room saying "now walk to  baby Jesus.  Walk to baby Jesus!"

wise deductions

daddy tooted while working on the floor.  jokingly, he  immediately blamed emma.

Emma: I didn't toot.  That was a loud one and I don't do loud toots.  and neither does mama.  it had to be daddy.

cold and partly cloudy

Watching the weather during the 12:00 news...

"Wow... she looks really cute today! Don't you think she looks really cute, Mom?"

malpractice suit?

Emma (excuse me... Rapunzel) and her husband Eugene have been having lots of babies recently.  Let me stress once again...her HUSBAND Eugene.

"Mom, I've got to go to the doctor and get my baby out!"

[from what I could see as she ran around the corner, she laid down somewhere on the floor and pretended to have the doctor take the baby out of her belly--we recently saw an episode of the Duggars where the mom had a C-section, so at this point, no hard questions have been asked about the whole baby escape].

A while later, she came up to me and handed me a washcloth. "Here.  You need to wash this because my baby was all bloody because they didn't wash him when he was born."

Mama: They don't sound like very good doctors.

Emma:  No, they are good doctors, but sometimes they just forget.

Soundtrack: Savior, Please {Josh Wilson}




Savior, Please {Josh Wilson}
Savior, please take my hand 
I work so hard, I live so fast 
This life begins, and then it ends 
And I do the best that I can, but I don't know how long I'll last 

I try to be so tough 
But I'm just not strong enough 
I can't do this alone, God I need You to hold on to me 
I try to be good enough 
But I'm nothing without Your love 
Savior, please keep saving me 

Savior, please help me stand 
I fall so hard, I fade so fast 
Will You begin right where I end 
And be the God of all I am because You're all that I have 

I try to be so tough 
But I'm just not strong enough 
I can't do this alone, God I need You to hold on to me 
I try to be good enough 
But I'm nothing without Your love 
Savior, please keep saving me 

Hallelujah 
Everything You are to me 
Is everything I'll ever need 
And I am learning to believe 
That I don't have to prove a thing 
'Cause You're the one who's saving me
