What time is it, Beth?



This post is dedicated to my two year old daughter, Beth! Beth has begun speaking quite a bit now, although it's still baby talk. Her vocabulary is still limited but I love some of the gems that come out of her mouth! 

Last evening we were celebrating my sis-in-law Susanna's birthday with some well-deserved birthday cake. The happiest person among us? Beth, of course! The day before her own birthday, 11th of Feb, Beth was asked, "What kind of cake would you like, Beth?" Pat came Beth's reply, "Too much cake!" Saying Beth loves cake would be an understatement! But I digress...

Anyway, as Beth was tucking into her share of cake last evening, the following conversation ensued:

Beth: Is not just me!
Nana: That's right, Beth. It's not just you! It's you and Jesus!
Beth: It's not Jesus time!

Susanna: What time is it, Beth?
Beth: It's 8:45!

It wasn't, but for Beth it's always 8:45! Anyway, for whatever it's worth, Beth 'won' that conversation!
