ETHANISMS

OK... so I would like to start a little section that I would like to call 'ETHANISMS." This section, lovingly named after our youngest, Ethan, who is 4 will contain funny little episodial moments that have happened w/ someone in our family and Ethan. Things that I want to remember.

1st of all, it is important to understand that Ethan is a "yapper." He learned to talk early and he hasn't stopped since. Come to think of it, all of my kids have done that. Anyway, Ethan entertains us on so many different levels, but one of the most entertaining are the silly little comments that he will make out of nowhere - an "Ethanism."

For example:

1st Ethanism: Ethan was talking to his Dad last week and said, "Dad, Heavenly Father knows when we tell a lie. He just does." To which dad stated, "Yes, that's right, so you don't want to do it." To which Ethan responded, "And then, Heavenly Father writes a letter to Santa Claus to let him know, so watch out!"

2nd Ethanism: Ethan was talking to me 2 weeks ago on the way to his school field trip. Out of nowhere he asked, "Mom, do ants have tongues?" Not knowing for sure, I said, that I didn't know, but why did he ask? He said, "Because.... I was just sitting here thinking that if ants really do have tongues, they are probably REALLY little."

Stay tuned for more Ethanisms!
