I have wanted to get these out there for a while, and now I have a title to match Cristian’s last post. Here are some of the fun things Layla says that we want to remember.
- Where that from come?
Meaning: Where does that come from? She likes to ask this about everything! Where do pickles come from, where do windows come from, where do leaves come from, etc. - Honey…
This can be applied to everyone. We are all honeys at one time or another. The funny thing is that she says it exactly how I do, like “hun-knee” with quite a lot of emphasis on the “knee.” - Look at that!

She is practicing her gymnastics on the doll swing that my Mom gave her for Christmas…
