From the Mouth of Nate

 -- "Mommy, take your shoes off."  "I don't want to take my shoes off Nate."  "But, Mommy, your feet must be hot, they've been in those shoes all day."

-- After explaining to me how a tornado works Nate then adds, "yup, God make that happen."  I said, "I think the weather makes that happen, Nate."  To which Nate responds, "yeah Mommy, and God make the weather."

-- "Creatures are animals."
