Mom: She's an English lab.

Audrey: Mommy, can you ever hear God?

Mom: [revels for a moment in the sweetness of a child's spirituality] People don't actually hear God talking out loud anymore, honey. Sometimes, in a way though, you can hear him talking to you in your heart.

Audrey: Well, I bet you could hear God laughing after He's had a beer!

Ethan got a little trim the other day...just cleaned up the back and sides, really. But he requested that his hair be styled "just like Julian's...in a faux-hawk" before he exited the chair. When she spiked it that way I thought for sure he would freak out and press it down wildly with his hands, lip stuck out in a pout. (For those of you who know Ethan, you can picture him doing this.) Instead, he thought he looked SO COOL and proudly showed his 'do to Dad. He was also worried about going to sleep that night because it might mess up his hair!
