Corban-isms and Micah-isms

Corban says, "Was that back when we were still inside you being worked on by God?"

After watching Corban run across some chairs, I ask him to get down. He does, then notices I'm looking at him with a smile on my face. He says, "I know what you're thinking! "Such a boy!""

While watching Eliana chew on a baby doll, Corban says, "These are the words I live by in babyland - it's not a toy, it's food!"

While watching Fiddler on the Roof with subtitles at our church movie night, Micah turns to me with a very frightened face and says, "How do the words follow the man?"

Corban says, "Mama, a couple of my dogs got married about 2 minutes ago! (stuffed animals) For awhile, my dog was engaged with my cat, but then I thought that was too weird, cause he's bigger than the cat!"

After evening prayers, when Daddy asks forgiveness for being crabby, Corban says, "It's okay that you were crabby, Daddy. It happens to all of us. It happens to EVERYONE in New York!"

Micah notices a picture of a brand new Eliana on the screen saver. He asks, "Mama, how did someone pull on your legs and push the baby out?"

Corban says, "Daddy, I wish I was born before you and Mama got married so I could be your ringbearer."

Micah calls his ideas "announcements" - that's some church influence for ya!

Corban says, "I've been arguing with myself about what I want to be when I grow up!"

When Daddy got KFC at the drive-thru, he said "Ah, beautiful!" as he took the bag from the worker. Micah, from the backseat, said, "Daddy, why you say beautiful? I thought there was a wife in there!"

Corban told Daddy he was dunked in the water at the pool and was baptized. Daddy said, "Well..." and Corban said, "I know, I know, it was swimming pool water, not Glory of God water!"

Micah says, "When I grow up, I'm going to be a man with big glasses and big pockets!"

Corban, after listening to Mama and some friends talking about different diets, says "I'm on a diet of playing as hard as I can so I can lose weight!"
