Believe it or not, this quote of the day is from Judd, not Jake. Although he only knows a handful a words, this quote is priceless.

One of Judd’s favorite words is “Da-Da.” In fact, he said “Da-Da” a long time before he ever said “Ma-Ma” but of course he still loves his mommy very much. Lately, I’v been asking Judd questions like, “Who’s your favorite?” He answers, “Da-Da.” And, “Who’s boy are you?” He answers “Da-Da.” In fact, the very first time I asked this question that was his response.

Stephanie was just reading a book to the boys about the Bible and I’m assuming it talked about Romans 3:23. So, she asks the question, “Who’s a sinner?” And, you can already tell where this one’s headed…Judd’s immediate answer is, “Da-Da.” I wonder if he and his mother have been practicing that one for a while.

Alright then, I guess I need to go repent now. My one year old has no questions about whether or not I’m a sinner. I mean, of course I’m a sinner; I was just hoping it wasn’t that obvious to him yet. 🙂

Okay, here’s another one. These just seem to keep on coming!

The other day I was sitting at the kitchen table with Jake. We were talking about God, Jesus, the Bible and all sorts of theology. It was a blast. We were discussing heaven and he asked, “Is heaven way far away in the sky?” I said, “Yes, Jake, heaven is very far away. And who is in heaven?” He said, “God…and Jesus…” “That’s right Jake!” I said, “and who else is in heaven?”

He asks me, “Is Alan Jackson in heaven too?”

Okay, a little background here. There’s a CD that we’ve been listening to in Stephanie’s car for years now it seems. It’s the Alan Jackson CD that has all sorts of hymns on it. Whenever Judd was really fussy in the car, we would turn it to, “Are You Washed in the Blood” and “I’ll Fly Away.” Judd would quiet down…and he still LOVES it. Now, Jake sings along. I guess because Alan Jackson sings about heaven, Jake thought he was already there. Pretty funny!

I was just sitting here playing on the computer with Jake and here’s what he asked me:

“Are you old Daddy? Are you old like Papa Benny?”

Papa Benny is Stephanie’s step-dad and he visited us for a little while with Ms. Dawn right after Anna Kate was born. I’m sure that Benny must have said something to Jake about being old while he was here and that’s where Jake came up with the question. Still, it’s hilarious isn’t it!?!?
