Kids Say the Darndest Things

- "That's not a very good idea" says Elizabeth, after watching a man go by on a bicycle, his dog on leash running beside him, in the dark and snow.
- "Bears and wolves are expensive.  You don't want to touch them."  It makes sense, once you think about it a little bit.
- "Dear Emily, you are so beautiful.  We love you very much.  Happy Thanksgiving."  Emily, "reading" a card that she received from a great aunt and great uncle
- "I hope that the candle doesn't cancel out the smell of the Christmas tree."
- "Mommy?  Is today Christmas Eve?  (yes)  Okay, then I'm going to be good today."  Gee, thanks Emily.
- "Maybe you should ask your mom.  Your mom is a famous cooker."  Elizabeth's advice when I told her that I wasn't certain about something that I was baking.
- "I just love happy endings" Elizabeth sighed after watching Snow White for the first time.
- "Miss Cathy.  You know what?  My mom is drinking a BEER!" Emily the tattletale.
- "Kiss Me!"  Someday, Emily is going to drive the boys crazy.  Right now, she just drives US crazy.
- "My brain is really workin' today!!" said Elizabeth after figuring out something on her own.
- "Emily, I talked to Grammy today."  "You did??  Was she making cookies for us?  I bet she was...."
