Our church's motto is: "No perfect people allowed". As we were heading to the parking lot after services today, we passed by the sign that had the church's name and motto on it. Todd wanted to know why it said "no perfect people allowed". I explained that there are no such thing as perfect people, and that even if there were, such people would not need to go to church-- they're "perfect", after all! He mulled this over a bit, and proclaimed:
"Well then, God isn't allowed! He's the only one that's perfect! We can talk about him in church, but he can't come in!"
... makes sense, doesn't it!

Todd got a haircut, and the loose hairs were making him itch, so when I told him to take his clothes off to take a shower, he complied more readily and quickly than usual. so I remarked, in regards to his speed and willingness to hop in the shower: "We ought to get his hair cut more often!"
Todd replied: "Nooo! Then I would be bald!"
Todd replied: "Nooo! Then I would be bald!"

Conversation on how quickly Todd was growing and how tall he was getting:
Mommy: Someday you'll be taller than Oma, then you'll be taller than me.
Daddy: And someday you'll even be taller than Grandma!
Todd: Will I be taller than Daddy?
Mommy: No.
Todd: Why not?
Mommy: Because I refuse to allow it!
Todd: You can't do that! Only God can do that!
Mommy: Someday you'll be taller than Oma, then you'll be taller than me.
Daddy: And someday you'll even be taller than Grandma!
Todd: Will I be taller than Daddy?
Mommy: No.
Todd: Why not?
Mommy: Because I refuse to allow it!
Todd: You can't do that! Only God can do that!

Todd lost his 4th tooth (still all on the bottom row) today. This is starting to get expensive! So the Tooth Fairy decided to cut down on her offerings, from $1 to 50 cents :-D
