.....out of the mouth

kids say funny things. anden, katie's oldest, is very smart and curious (as are the other two). however, anden is at the age where he has more quotable ideas. here are a few gems from yesterday and this morning:

raegan: (holding up a picture of joseph smith during fhe) do you boys remember who is in this picture?
anden: um.....president monsen?
katie: good guess, but it's actually joseph smith.
anden: (rolls eyes) oh. close enough!
-------------------------------
anden: dad, how high is heaven?
raegan: oh, it's really high.
anden: hm...would you have to take a spaceship to get there?
-------------------------------
katie: (watching hotel for dogs, where the kids have foster parents) sometimes, if something happens to a kid's parents, they go to live with someone else who will take care of them.
anden: like what would happen to them (the parents)?
katie: well they could get sick, or they might die, so someone else would take care of them.
anden: oh. well...could something happen like....wait. do aliens bite?

i think the last one stemmed from watching monsters vs. aliens on saturday (it kinda freaked out both anden and mckay). anyway, just wanted to share. these kids make me laugh.
