is she smarter than me??

now it doesn't always happen this way, but i like to have the house cleaned (straightened at least), dinner ready or cooking and the appearance that all is in order when allen gets home from work. i always help avery pick up the play room and give her a "list" of things to do. i asked her today why it was important to clean up after ourselves and she said "i don't know." so i said, "well what does the bible say about it," (thinking to myself...thinking...come on mom...you can think of one....). she promptly replied "honor your mommy and daddy....would that honor you and daddy?"
my jaw hit the floor.
totally unscripted and unprompted.
i love hearing what comes out of her little mouth...and heart!
