In a dark and evil world

Picture, if you will:
I am sitting at the table eating my lunch. I hear Henry walking up the stairs and immediately realize that he is also singing. He is singing 'The Bible Stands.' I wait. He reaches the top of the stairs and walks to my side, still singing. He is holding a Bible. He completes the song and I praise him. It was flawlessly sung, no mistakes, and the prop he selected was perfect. After I told him multiple times how well he had sung he asked me, "do you know where I found the Bible?"
"No," I replied, "where did you find it?"
"In a dark place. I looked in a dark place and I saw a little bit of white."

Filthy trick

The first, very first thing my husband said to me this morning was, "I think it's a dirty trick that it's called 'zoology'" (using the correct pronunciation)
He's right. Filthy trick. "So," I replied, "I move that we give the word three 'o's and pronounce it 'zoo-ology'"
It's true. My dear Tyson and I have but one mind and one way of thinking. There is in every thing a most remarkable resemblance of character and ideas between us. We seem to have been designed for each other.

what Stephen said

Henry: "hey mom, do you know what Stephen said?"
me: "no. What did Stephen say? Did he say he likes you?"
Henry: "no. Hey said 'hey!' I think that means he likes me"

by any other name

Henry: "Mommy, did you know that Mr. Pinne's middle name is Henry?"
Me: "Yes, I did know that. His name is Franklin Henry Pinne."
Henry "Franklin Henry Pinne?"
Me: "Franklin Henry Pinne."
Henry: "I think I want to just call him Henry."
Me: "You should probably just call him Mr. Pinne."
Henry. "Flapjacks."

Girl can crawl

Elizabeth crawled today. I put her down in the living room after I fed her and then went to the kitchen to feed the boys breakfast. She'd had enough after about 20 seconds of screaming and decided to take matters into her own hands. Next thing we knew, she was in the kitchen doorway. She's mobile!
