Sense of Humor

I love the age Elijah is right now because his sense of humor is starting to come alive. Sometimes its the funny things that he says that get me through the tantrums and constant testing that comes with this age too.

Phil and I are going back and forth about adding another member to our family (so far, I'm winning this debate, but we'll see...I'm thinking we're done)...anyway...I thought I'd ask Elijah if he would want another brother or sister and he promptly said he'd like a brother. Later in the day at dinner I asked him a similar question and he said, "No, why don't you just give Savannah back and get me a boy." He then started laughing and said, "oh, mommy, that's so silly"...I about lost it and was cracking up.

This morning Phil and I went on a hike with some of the college students from church and took Elijah and Savannah as well. It was a beautiful day and the weather and fellowship were perfect. Elijah walked most of the way...but at some point during the beginning of our walk he told Phil, "Daddy, my feet just won't move anymore" which he thought was pretty funny and so did we, clearly he was still walking but had to add a little dramatic flare to his utter exhaustion. :)
