Out of the Mouth of Babes

I would love to think I will always remember the endearing things my children say, however I know I am already losing my mental capacities. SO I am putting them here so I can savor them at a later date. Keep in Mind these are the actual words that came out of my sweet children's mouths the last week.
1)
Gideyon "Mom, do water towers actually have water in them?"
Gillyan "Yes! Hence the name WATER tower" in her most condescending six year old voice.
2)
Gillyan "Mom we should go get ice cream to celebrate Grammy's birthday since it's her favorite!"
Bear in mind that we live 2400 miles apart, but the girl will work any angle to get ice cream:)
3)
Gideyon"Mom when I grow up can I not brush my teeth so that they will rot and then I can get gold crowns on them like a pirate?" Do not ask me how that boy's brain works!
4)
Gillyan"My hair is kinda curly and wavy like Grammy's. I like Grammy's hair, it's pretty!" Translation: I can't tell you that I love my own hair that would be vain, so I will just tell you how much I love Grammy's because my hair is just like hers!
5)
Gideyon"Mom if I pay for them can I eat the whole box of PopTarts?" The child has a serious addiction to those frosted things!
6)
Gillyan "Mom when I grow up and have my own house, you can spend the night as much as you want" Let's pray she always feels that way:)

These little quotes and phrases may not mean much to anyone else, but they will definitely remind me of the personalties my little people had at this time.
