So this morning we were getting ready, McKenna is brushing her hair and I'm finishing my makeup in our bathroom and in walks Calvin with his shoes and socks. He sits down on the floor to start putting them on and he is talking to us etc...all of the sudden he says very excitedly, "Wow Mom nice nail paint!" I say, "what?". He repeats himself. I say, "what I don't know what you are talking about buddy?". He says very animated, "I didn't KNOW your work LET you wear painted nails to work they are SO NICE! Wow and you did a really good job, they look very pretty! Wow, your work is so nice, they don't let anyone wear painted nails at my school." I say laughing, what about the teachers and he says well maybe they let them but probably only if they ask first. It totally cracked me up because I work for the school district, anyways it was funny this morning the way he said it and how astonished he was with how nice my work was to let me polish my own finger nails. He notices things most 6 year old boys wouldn't...polish, makeup, hair, clothes, necklaces, shoes etc and is always so positive and sincere when complimenting them.McKenna is going to be the next 
Martha...she's sewing her own apron in 4H and made her own hair scrunchy. Wants to start the cake decorating class in 4H also. She's been baking cookies and doing such a great job! Wanting to help in the kitchen all of the time. She sorted some laundry this past weekend too. Since she was about 8 she's designed modest dresses and wants to make her own clothes line. She's very crafty and loves doing anything related to art. :o) For over a year now she has said she wants to own a restaurant and ice cream shop when she grows up and she'll be a Vet on the side and own lots of dogs. (is that Martha Stewart or what?) Anyways, she has her life planned out; she wants a VW bug car old fashioned one that's hot pink, she wants to take some college classes in high school, graduate high school, move to Utah and live with Grammy while she attends BYU so Grammy can cook for her and make her all time favorite Banana Choc Chip Muffins, get married in the temple when she is 25 and I already mentioned she wants to become a Vet and own the ice cream restaurant. :o) Last Sunday they had the primary children sing a song and McKenna was about a foot taller than the tallest kids...some friends in our row who happen to be in the YW's program said, "McKenna is 12 right or will be soon?". :o) NOPE she's only 10!

I love these two and just wished I got to hang out with them more often to learn from them and see the world through their eyes more often. This post is for me I've learned that I forget these funny things way too fast.
