Children are so amazing.....About two months ago I was telling SaVonni that you're not supposed to talk on the cell phone when your driving because it can distract you as well as get you a ticket. LaMarque is usually the one that does it because he's always checking his "Crackberry"(sorry, I hate those things) while he's driving so usually SaVonni is saying "Daddy, don't talk on the phone while your driving you might put us in danger". She never says anything to me because I rarely use the phone while driving. Last night I was searching for my cell phone before we left the house and the conversation went like this:
S: "Mom, I put your cell phone in MY purse so you won't be tempted to use it"
R: "Ok, honey but what if I need to call somebody?"
S: "I can call daddy for you and if we have an emergency, I'll call 9-1-1" (she has LaMarque's # memorized by heart, she calls him like 20 times a day ;) hillarious)
R: "OK"
S: "Mommy, I don't want you to get a ticket or go to jail or get in an accident. I love you, daddy, LJ and JoJo way too much"
R: "OK honey"
S: "Who else is more important that you would need to talk to"
R: "You're right baby, you can keep my cell phone in your purse"
S: "I love you mommy"
What a blessing to have my children in our lives. In the midst of daily routines, busy schedules they remain the same and remind me of my priorities.

This is so funny but true. I never have seen a dialogue of our conversations. I am laughing sooooo hard right now. Great job Ra keep teaching our children to do the safe thing.
She sounds like a sweetheart. You are lucky Reathanak.
