I needed a smile today!!

Thinking of my beautiful, hand full of a daughter, to help me get through the day today, I started thinking of her funny sayings.

The one that always stands out in my mind, one day she was being quite the little pill and Travis yelled at her and said "dang it kid why can't you just be good!!" she looked up at him with her beautiful blue eyes and smiled and said " daddy sometimes I justdon't like to be good!" Ya the both of us lost it and started laughing!

Another day that Savannah was being her "perfect" little self she started arguing with me and I told her she needed to stop. I warned her a couple of times but she just kept going. So I finally told her if she didn't chill out I would call her cheer coach and tell her that Savannah would be done with cheer. Just as I was finishing talking Savannah froze and looked at me and said "mom you couldn't do that to me, cheer is my life!' I did hold in my laughter on this one but inside I was laughing so hard. For a couple of reasons for one she is only 8, and another I can not believe that my daughters "life' is cheer. Boy does life like to play fun little jokes with you!!

I know I have mentioned this one in another entry but is shows how Savannah is a combination of every thing. We were eating dinner and she was smacking her lips and just not having any manners at all!! I said to her "Savannah you need to act like a girl." She says, " but momma I am a tom boy" again with her ever strong attitude of DUH!!

The other day Savannah won a inflatable chair. She asked the boys (Travis Jr. 18 and Austin 16) for help blowing it up. They agreed so I went on doing some chores around the house. A few minutes later she came to me and said "mom the boys are so dumb!" I said " oh Savannah please don't talk like that." She said " but mom I asked the boys to help me blow up my chair and they are using there nouths and not the little blower that I all ready got out!" Ya I laughed really hard and said " well maybe they like doing it that way better" She said " well it will take forever!'"

This one always makes me laugh and she is quite aware of it so she does it often. Whenever Travis and I kiss or hug or anything mushy like that she makes a disgusted sound and says "oh could you two please get a room!"

Another one and then I will stop for today! We were in the truck and a song came on the radio, I turned it up and started obnoxiously singing to it and she looked and me with this look, and said "mom you are so weird!'" I said " I am, are you sure?" Savannah "oh yes I am so sure, but that is okay mom weird is fun!"
