I need a bigger house!!


I love my conversations with Paige! She cracks me up constantly.  So she came into my room last night as I was getting ready to go out. She had just come from walking all thru the house. I thought she had lost something.  She says to me, "When I grow up, I want a big house, a bigger house than this."  I was surprised and explained to her that we thought we had the perfect size house, that we built it to fit our family, that we had a room for everyone, that we should be grateful for the house that we have. She says, "It is a good house for our family, but Im going to have 700 kids!  So I need a bit bigger house!"  I about fell on the floor laughing. 700 KIDS!  Then she goes on to ask me if we get to choose how many kids we have.  I explained that each baby is a gift and so precious and sometimes we can choose but sometimes we cant.  She says, "Well, if I get to choose, Im having 700."  What a sweetie!  So if this holds true, I will be the proud grandmother to at least 700 kids ;)!
