Ashley was trying to get Abigail and Nathaniel to eat their green beans. We are not the world's biggest green bean fans. But these kids just refuse to eat good veggies. So she told them that if they ate their veggies they would grow big and strong. She told Nathaniel first. She said that if he ate his veggies he would grow big and strong like Daddy (good for the ego!). Then Abigail said, "Mommy, would I be big and strong like Daddy, or big and strong like you?" Abigail is very smart like that. So Ashley said, "You will probably be big and strong like Mommy."
Abigail got this excited look in her eyes and her whole face lit up as she said, "OH WOW, then I could reach things!" So she started really eating her green beans. After she had scarfed them all down, she got out of her chair, ran to the kitchen, and then started to get frustrated for some reason. Ashley said, "Honey, what's wrong? Why are you getting frustrated?"
"I'm not growing yet!" Abigial said.
Oh, my Abigail. I love her so much. Both of these two bring such joy to my life!
