The Knights: Male Bonding and ninja moms

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

Logan told me today that he was ready for a "bonnie moment". It took me a minute and multiple times of asking for an explanation to figure out. He wanted to have a "bonding moment". Something Keith will say if they are going to hang out. Keith had fallen asleep (we are all pretty sick around here) and Logan wanted to have this special moment only with a boy (aka Dad). So I had to pretend to be a boy the entire time we played Lego's. My throat still hurts from talking so deep.

Then...Dylan joined in on the fun with her new girl Lego's. You don't realize how girls and boys are wired so differently from the start until you have kids. Logan was all about blowing things up and fighting, and Dylan wanted you to mourn over her death every time Logan blew her up. She also thought my ninja's needed a mother so she was the ninja mom. "she only fights when she is not cooking dinner." Needless to say it was a pretty hilarious imaginary game of Ninja fighting and some awesome "male" bonding.
