My kids!

Two scary thing were said this weekend.  I seriously hear the words come from these crazy kids mouths, but it takes a while to actually process what they are saying.  I laugh a lot.  The first came from Coren.  Let me just start by saying this... I know that this will make me look bad, but honestly, I don't care! So yes, like most people I own an iron.  Why?  Because I guess everyone needs to own one.  Have I ever used it?  Ummm... I can't say that I have.  Well, it sits nicely in the cubbord above my dryer, kind of in the back, you know, for a day that I might actually use it.  So we have our friend Gilda staying with us right now and she irons her stuff.  I guess that she cares how she looks.  :)  She asked me if she could use my iron. Sure!  Let me dust if off for you!  I went and got the iron and started to walk it over to her when I hear a very confused Coren say, "What is that flat thing???"  

Later that day at dinner Makenna got all excited and announced, "Guess what guys!!! Emily M. got a first period today.  I guess that it means she can have kids now.  And...  her parents said that she could have it.  I just looked at Steve trying so hard not to laugh.  

He whispered under his breath..." no, you can't have it", and we both started to laugh.  I quickly explained that every girl gets a first period and told her what it was.  She told us that Emily's Mom got a first period when she was 14 (good to know) but that Emily got hers early.  I guess it is time for the talk.
