Cutest Thing Ever

It has been kinda quiet around here lately. Jake's in Alaska, and Aspen has been spending a lot of time out with my mom and my grandma running errands and SHOPPING (lucky). Granted, Spencer makes enough noise and craziness and fun to make up for 5 kids, but it's still much quieter without the older two.
So, Spencer and Hannah and I were sitting down for lunch together the other day (quesadillas and apples! YUM!) and I was kinda lost in my own thoughts for a bit. When I started paying attention to their chatter, here's how it went down:
Hannah (who was pretending to be a monkey): "One more time?"
Spencer: "Okaaaaaaaaaay. Once upon a time there was a bee-yooooooooo-tiful princess, named Monkey. And there was a DRAGON! and a coooooool prince, named Spencer! The end."
Hannah: "One more time, Spencer?"
Spencer: "Okaaaay. Once upon a time there was a GIANT! A forte giant. And his name was Spencer. The end."
Hannah: "One more time? With ghost-es."
Spencer: "Okay, with ghost-es. Once upon a time, there was a GHOST! and he was a little boy named Spencer. The end."
Hannah: "I love you, Spencer."
Spencer: "I love you, too, Monkey."
Obviously I missed several stories before that. But it was just the cutest thing ever. This is why I love being a mom! These kids are such a blessing. When they're not eating PlayDoh... or flushing my make-up down the toilet. :) I can say one thing, it's constantly interesting. :)

Okay I just read this story for the first time and that is seriously the cutest thing ever! How fun. I am so excited for when my kiddos can talk more. :) Thanks again for the invite today and for hanging out by our pool. It was a lot of fun...we have to do that again soon!
