The things Cullen says at age 6

In the car out of the blue Cullen says, " Mom you have 3 kids, 1 is too loud, 1 is too quiet, and 1 is just right."

I said who is the just right kid? Cullen said, "Ava"

so sweet



Riding in the car Cullen said he was going to be an Indian for Halloween. A Chief Indian. All of the sudden he said to Ava, "Servant turn on the radio."




One day after his speech therapist left the house he told me, "Mrs. Lisa is beautiful and I am going to tell her."
So the next speech therapy session I heard him coming down the hall and he told her. I was a little surprised because he gets shy sometimes but he did and she thought that was the sweetest thing.



Cullen playing on his Mindcraft game on the ipad, he put up a cross and then he put this on it.  Jesus loves me this I know for the Bible tells me so. He said, "You can tell people about Jesus anywhere, even on Mindcraft."



One day during school he looked at me and said, "Mom, I love my instincts."



Cullen was eating lunch with Dad one day and Drew Hardee was there and he asked Cullen, "Who is the strongest person you know?" Cullen said, "God"  Drew said, "Ok, well who is the second strongest person you know?" Cullen said, "Jesus"   Drew thought for sure the next person he would say would be him, so he asked him one more time and Cullen said, "how am I supposed to know."



Cullen was in Florida with Nathan to see Chris Archer play baseball for the Tampa Rays.  So Chris Archer said Cullen who is your favorite baseball team?  Cullen said, "Red Sox."  Chris said, "I will give you some candy if you say Tampa." Cullen said, " Nope, Red Sox."



Cullen looked under his armpit and sang "I'm a man, I'm a man."
He thought he saw under arm hair.

I was talking to the kids in the car and I said, "The Lord always provides and I paused for a second, then Cullen spoke up and said "awesomeness!"



Cullen said, "I had a staring contest with Fuzzy pants ( the cat) and she won!"

I'm a good forgettor....

You want my neck? It's hot and juicy!


Cullen talking to Ava, "I watched you sing Ava and it was beautiful."

Ava asked Cullen if she was invited to his party and he said, "of course you are, you are making the cookies!"

I was upset and Cullen asked me what was wrong and I said I was overwhelmed, and he said, "you are overwhelmed, I am overwhelmed, I got a black eye and I got hit in the head today!"  he Put it all in perspective

Morehead Planetarium Chapel Hill

What a great Field trip. I love going to the Morehead Planetarium at Chapel Hill. Since we are learning about the human body I thought this would be a great learning experience. It was called grossology. We watched an awesome show on how the immune system works and then the kids were able to do some hands on projects. It was a great learning day.
