Misunderstood...

Lately, Lana has been keeping us all entertained with things that she hears or sees, but doesn't understand. For instance:

Today I was listening to my iPod with the kids. The oldest girls think it is fun to listen to my music and dance with me. (Kate was even getting into it today. She would put the earpiece by the side of her head - and then she would eat it. She was trying to listen to the music through her mouth I guess.) Anyway, back to the story. So Lana handed Rylee an earpiece to listen to and explained to her that they could each have one because there is an "L" on one earpiece for Lana and an "R" on the other earpiece for Rylee. Perfect! I didn't tell her what they really stood for. I like her explanation better.

Another misunderstanding: On Sunday after church the girls were singing primary songs. They have apparently inherited my love for making up new lyrics to primary songs. They were singing their own version of "Oh What Do You Do In The Summertime?" They were singing, "Do you spin in a circle..to make yourself purple?" So we were already giggling over those lyrics when that got Lana thinking about other primary songs. She started singing "Called To Serve." Are you ready for this one? This is good. Mid-chorus, Lana just stops singing and says, "Mom, did you know they say 'Fartin' wide' in that song?" I was dying! Leave it to one of MY kids to think about farts in a song. (In case you aren't familiar with the song, the lyrics really say 'Far and Wide, we tell the Father's story...')

Gotta love four year olds and the way their little minds work.
