The other day we were going for a ride and we passed the 9/11 memorial here in town and Ethan and Emma had the following conversation:
Ethan: Emma when I was 2 months and 2 days old some bad men crashed airplanes into the twin towers and made them completely crash. A lot of people died in the crash. And they did it on purpose.
Emma (completely appalled): They should be ashamed of theirselves!
Ethan (a little sad and incredulous): I don't think they are.
I am amazed at how well they grasp what happened that day even though they are so young. I know adults who are still struggling to understand it.
Shauna should love this:
At church on Sunday, Emma was called to win the FHE lesson to take home and when she heard her name she jumped up and did "spirit fingers"! LOL I thought of Shauna at softball cheering "go tigers!" I am just glad she didn't try and do a kick, she doesn't wear bloomers over her undies at church! :)
