Wise Words from Young Girls

Lately I've heard some sayings from our girls that are worth sharing. Here they are:

While we were going to a baptism for a friend, I realized we didn't have a lei to give. When I mentioned this to the kids, Kezia said, "We don't have a lei, but we have love....and even if we didn't have anything at all, not even clothes, we'd still have hugs and kisses to give....unless we didn't have arms or a face, of course."

One day Ivy told me she made a friend at school. I asked, "How did you make a friend?" She looked at me questioningly and responded, "I just started loving her, and she started loving me, and so we're friends." (And to think of it, it really is as easy as that, isn't it?)

And even though this one might not be so wise, it is nonetheless cute: Elysse was in time-out and in tears came out to tell me, "My heart is broke and that's why I'm sad."
