Quotable Ben, age almost 7

“How big is Heaven? … Is it bigger than Russia?”

~

“My teachers keep saying that I’m kind.”

~

Listening to Vi practice her 6^th-grade trombone music: “I know that song – I think it’s by Justin Bieber.”

Holding the book for bedtime story, so I could nurse the baby while we read:

Mommy: “OK, next page…”

Ben puts his hand to his nose, then turns the page.

Mommy: “Why’d you do that?”

Ben: “I was just sniffin’ my hand – that’s what people do when they turn the page.”
