Independency.

One of the things that makes me laugh the most is when Gwen wants to be independent.

"Gwen you need to put on your coat or you'll freeze."

"I want freeze."

"If you eat too much candy it will make you sick."

"I want sick."

My favorite though is:

"Gwen you can't ride in the trunk of the car. It's illegal."

"I want illegal."

Kids, you just gotta love them.

Time Out

Gwen has been really funny lately. Yesterday was her first day as a sunbeam in our ward and she was really good. When the teacher asked her questions she would answer them. She would dance and sing to all the primary songs. I hope she continues to be such a good girl. She also had her first time of saying a prayer (repeating it really). She always refused to do it and I finally got her to do it twice now. One cute thing she did was her daddy was expressing some frustration with the internet connection and Gwen told him to stop fighting and that he was on time out. I also got put on time out today because I told Gwen to stop yelling. Now which one of us was the parent again?

I have to watch what I tell Gwen because she chooses the most embarrassing time to repeat it. She has a book about the human body that I read to her one time. We talked about what happens to the food we eat. Of course that's what she says when we had snack time on Sunday. I was a little embarrassed to say the least. That's the last time I will try and be scientific with Gwen. At least I know she understood.
