Obligatory Cute Miles Moments

Cute Miles moment #1-

Miles has been talking a lot about mosquitoes this summer since they were the bane of our existence in Oklahoma. A couple days ago, Matt and Miles were outside and he told Matt he had to go feed the mosquitoes. Matt followed Miles, curious to see what he was talking about and Miles started gently putting rocks in a bush. Somehow, Matt was able to find out that he misunderstood Miles. Miles was saying "mesquites." Apparently mesquite bushes eat rocks. We're not sure where Miles picked up "mesquites," pronounced the Spanish way "mes-qui-te," or why he decided they eat rocks, but we now regularly feed our bushes.

Miles and I were lying down getting ready for him to go to sleep. As a last minute ploy to stay awake a couple more minutes, he decided to have a banana. While he ate, we said our prayers and I talked to him about God. "Miles, did you know God made you?" "Yes." "Did you know God made Mama and Daddy too?" "Yes." "And the sun, and the moon, and the stars come from God?" "Yes." "And the trees, and animals, and even that banana you're eating?" "No, Mama! The banana is from the refrigerator!"
