The Knights: Late night sentiments.

Logan has been getting scared at night because his fan will blow things in his room. So we have been teaching him that he can say a prayer and HF will make him feel better and help him to sleep. One morning he told me he had been scared and that he prayed and that HF really made him feel better. The cutest part is, he got out of bed and knelt in the middle of his floor to say the prayer. Then crawled back in bed and fell asleep. I told him he didn't have to get out of bed if he was scared and he said, "yes I do, I have to show HF respect." 05-'10
We were at a park that had the telephone toys. One pipe on one end, and Logan was near the other end. Mikah yelled in the pipe "I love you Logan" he looked around confused because he was all alone and said, "I love you too Heavenly Father, I know that you are true!" then went on playing as if this was a regular occurance. 04-'10
When you lay a blanket on the ground and sit on it he thinks it is called a party. He will always ask me to make a party for him. 09-'10
While talking a mile a minute he stopped and said, "the batteries in my mouth are broken." 3-'10
He told me to take a cat nap, and he would take a dog nap. 3-'10
He calls Mozzarella cheese, Cinderella cheese. 3-'10

While counting to 10...1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,purple,10! 4-'10
While playing kitchen with Daddy he told her to put something in the microwave for 2 minutes, she ran to the couch and buried her face in her hands and began to cry. When he asked her what was wrong she said "time out." (When she is in trouble she has to sit on the stairs for 2 min.) 2-'10
When she wants to be held she will stand at your feet and say "Can I hold you?" 1-'10
If she is mad at you she will flip your lip. 1-'10
When she wants your attention she will yell "Mamma Keith Knight, or Daddy Keith Knight" we all get Logan's full name. 1-'10

I really should be in bed, but haven't had a free second to work on my Young Women stuff for tomorrow. So here I am working on my lesson. And on my desktop is this picture.

I keep opening it to view it and then closing it to work on my lesson. But I can't leave it alone. I love her. Everything I love about her I can see in this picture. The cute curve in her nose, her long dark eyelashes, her meaty cheeks, and her plump bottom lip. Her business on top-party in back hairdo. (I am not sure when her full head of hair is going to grow in) but I still love it. And her cute shoulder muscles that no matter how hard I try-I just can't seem to get my arms to look like that. She was so thrilled with the licorice I gave her she was hugging it. It was also partly covered in dirt and she didn't even care. I love being her mom. I was having a little bit of an ornery mommy day today and Dylan took all of her food and dumped it on the floor. I looked at her and said..."really Dylan, REALLY" and she looked and me with a great big smile on her face and said "ya." We all started to giggle. She is so different from Logan. I am learning even more things about myself then I thought I could. Mostly my greater capacity to love, and my lack of patience. I am working on the latter.
