God and Squiggles

I was taking Kaylee to Little Gym the other day and she asked why their were squiggles in the road. I said I didn't know what she was talking about. On the way home she got real excited and said Dad Dad Dad, there, look! There were some patches in the road. I told her that the road had an owie and the construction workers fixed it but that left a squiggle in the road. She asked, "What are their names?" I said I didn't know the construction workers' names and she asked who did. I had nothing so I said God. She said God with the angels? I said yes. She said so then does Puppy know the construction workers' names? I asked her why and she said because Puppy had gone up to heaven to be with God and the angels. I told her yes and almost balled my eyes out. Puppy was Sandy's dog for a long long time and he passed the other day. Kaylee wasn't sad, just matter of fact about the whole thing. I could learn a lot from that little girl.

Flag

Kaylee asks me every time I drop her off at school if I can stay for Flag. Today I did. Everyone gathers around the flag. One big kid and one little kid hook it up to the pole and raise it. Everyone then says the pledge of allegiance and sings This Land is My Land. She sang Grand Old Flag over the summer. It's pretty darn cute seeing all the kids with their hands on their hearts and their little voices singing.
