Kortlyn says the cutest things...

"Mama, I want you to dead that ant with your foot." - Kortlyn @ around 2 yrs.

While visiting my Mamaw and Papaw, my daughter became enthralled with a globe that was set out on a table. She began spinning it round and round and finally stopped it. With both hands on the globe and without looking up, Kortlyn says "Papaw, do we live on Earth?... or Texas?" - Kortlyn @ around 3 yrs.

Driving home late one night, Kortlyn piped up from the back seat "Mama, do wishes come true?". Chad and I looked at each other and smiled. I wasn't sure how to answer her, for I felt this was somewhat of a deep question for a little girl. I wanted my answer to be just right and I finally told her that "Yes, Kortlyn, some wishes do come true, but we need to pray rather than wish for things and if God thinks we need whatever it is, he may give it to us. So, yes, baby, sometimes wishes do come true." I felt satisfied with my answer and was silently patting myself on the back. However, after a few seconds she piped up in a somewhat distraught voice "Well, I wished I was a mermaid... And, I'm NOT!" - Kortlyn @ around 3 or 4 yrs.
