I need a place to record funny Ana stories without making a new post everytime. So for grandparents and friends that are interested, this is the post that I will add to when Ana does something funny.
December 2009
1. When we were waiting for Maggie's sonogram appointment the other day, Ana was sitting in the waiting room beside a woman that wanted to converse with her. She asked her many questions (this entire conversation was in Spanish) and two of Ana's answers cracked us up.
woman: "So how long have you lived here?"
Ana: "Meses." (which is Spanish for "months")
woman: Where does your father work?"
Ana: "con los conejos." ("with the rabbits"--we have 2 rabbits on our back patio and Ana helps feed them with Greg)
2. This morning Ana made a mess--a really big one. She decided to get her powder container down and explore with it. The result: Her room, some of Maggie's room, and the walk area outside of the bedrooms have a fine layer if powder on them. The broom can't seem to sweep up the last layer. It sure does smell good on that side of our house.

1. Ana has a list of memory verses. Right now, if she can't remember chapter and verse she says "30:30." Besides being in the "why" stage, she has started asking us who made things. While in Lima, we saw a dog and cow. She learned that God made the dogs and the cows. Now for our conversation on the way to the airport:
A: Momma, God made everything. He made the puppy dog.
M: yes.
A: Momma, God made the cows.
M: yes he did.
A: Momma, God made us.
M: You are right, Ana.
A: ... and we are his. Psalm 30:30
M: Good job, Ana. Way to remember your verse. :)
2. Phrase translation:
I am full. = I am tired. (example: she stops running on the sidewalk to tell us she is full, or she stops helping me with a chore because she is "full.")
(excuse the crudeness, but this one has been so funny) My poop has gas in it. = I have gas and my stomach is upset.
Daddy you are pretty like a princess. = Daddy, you are handsome. (I love how she returns the compliments that Greg gives to her)
3. Someone asked her how old I was for my birthday. She answered in Spanish: "I am two, and my momma is three."
4. Ana is like a bottomless pit at times, but she isn't big on pizza or pasta right now. She always asks for more salad. Weird child.
5. She has been sounding so mature in her prayers lately. She always remembers all of our house church members (the Smiths. Jose Luis, and Emilio) and she has been praying "that Gram and Pop, safe to my new house."
6. She keeps dreaming about a lion coming in to her room at night. He comes in and tries to eat her "kids" (all of her baby dolls and animals). Isn't that horrible. We have talked about God taking care of us
