How we found Abigail when asked to put her pajamas on by herself.
*****
JB was holding Abigail and Hannah on his lap. He gave them both hugs and said:
JB: "I love you two. You are my girls."
Abigail: "Yeah Daddy." (Then she pointed to her brothers sitting on the couch.) "And those are your stinky boys."

I was reading the boys a fable about how it was better to have "good stuff" than "showy stuff." I read how the deer didn't like his legs but thought his antlers were stunning -- only to find his end stuck in a branch by his antlers, despite his hard running legs.
Me: "It's sort of like having a really nice pair of tennis shoes. Do you think having a really nice pair of tennis shoes is the best thing ever?"
Sidge: "No."
Me: "What is better than awesome shoes?"
Sidge: "God?"
Me: "Well, yes, of course God. But what would be something a bit smaller that is better than tennis shoes?"
Sidge: "Legos?"
