The Children

Can you crack this code?
Peter: "I don't want to wear my heart-car-wash pants today."
(Carhartts)

Lucy, overhearing discussion about whether she should go to Sunday School since she was a little sick: "I am not sick, I am a chicken, and I say, 'Bawk!'"

Lucy heard the organ prelude on Sunday, and wondered, "Who's singing that song?" I told her it was Mr. Whitman playing the organ, and helped her stand up on the pew so she could see him. She watched fascinated as Jim moved his hands from one keyboard to another, and said at last, "That man is shaking his head!"

Heidi called today to tell us the latest news: Peter and Lucy got married. While standing on the piano bench in the living room, Peter's arm around Lucy, they tied the knot. Announcements included the fact that they will have both their dinner and their children "here," that is, at home.
