A couple of weeks ago, I bought Kallie a cheap little "magnet book," as she calls it. It's just a little folded piece of cardboard, (and apparently metal), that has a farm scene printed on the inside. It came with several little magnet animals and farm implements to place on the scene. We took it over to my mom's house, where Kallie proceeded to show her aunts and uncle her new toy. My brother, Jesse, took one look at the dog magnet and told Kallie it was a pooping dog. He's right--it looks like a VERY uncomfortable or unpleasantly surprised dog.
Well, fast forward to our adult session of Stake Conference tonight. I took the magnet book to keep Kallie busy during the 2-hour session. Toward the end of conference, we hand Kallie the toy. All of a sudden, she starts saying, in a louder-than-usual voice, "Pooping dog! Pooping dog!" Ryan and I were trying not to bust up laughing while instructing Kallie that she at least needed to whisper. She kept repeating it, decreasing her volume each time--until she was finally whispering--but it was incredibly funny! I have no idea if the people around us knew what she was saying, but I'm sure her Uncle Jesse would be proud!

Oh goodness, I wouldn't have been able to tell her to use her quiet voice because I would be too busy laughing.
Hey Amanda!
What great posts... I have spent a great portion of my morning getting caught up on you! I LOVE the post with the Take, Eat link. I am using that in my post, if you don't mind. What a great story.
I have to agree with you about the patience meter. I really liked how you put that. I feel mine is in the red all day long, until my kids too say something that brings me back to green. Thanks for that.
I love the Celebrity Morph! So fun! And I can totally see it looking at your pictures! Cool!
