- "I want to buy everything on this show." We watched a two hour marathon of Pawn Stars with the girls one night during Christmas vacation and they loved every second of it. It totally appealed to their sense of adventure - and, quite obviously, Emily's inner pack-rat.
- "How come I didn't get ANY Legos for Christmas?" Emily complained one day. Um, because you didn't ask for any? That's a pretty good reason.
- Me: I talked to Daddy and he said that you can't download "Gangnam Style".
Elizabeth: Why? Because of the S word? (S word being "sexy")
Me: Yes.
Emily: But that's not why we want the the song. We want it for "OPPAN GANGNAM STYLE".
Me: (laughing) Too bad.
- "Can we just leave the security tag on the jacket?" Elizabeth and I were negotiating over whether she could get a North Face jacket and one of things I pointed out is that she has to be very responsible with it, as people steal NF jackets. She thought that if the store left the security tag on, it would be less likely to get stolen....anyway, for those of you that are interested, it turns out that this particular jacket was not on sale (although other NF jackets were) and so, the negotiation ended.
- "Some of these guys are stinky but some of them are INSANE." Elizabeth's spot on observation from the New Jersey State Championship Meet.
- "It's beautiful!" That was Emily's response to my question about what it was like to listen to Elizabeth and her classmates play their recorders at school (Emily's classroom is next door to Elizabeth's classroom).
- "If we could wear jewelry to school, I would wear a locket with Memere's picture and Uncle Andy's picture. And Emily could wear a locket with Memere's picture and Uncle Barry's picture."
- "Can I keep Lambie forever?"
- "When are you going to start let me wash the dishes?" I'll be reminding Elizabeth of this one in a few years, I'm sure.
- "I wish I was a Hollywood star...."
- "I do like to dance, but I like to dance hard. I don't like to dance the same steps over and over again because I know them all." Sure you do.
- "Emily, if you had to choose between Lambie and Baxter, which would you choose?" Long, long pause. "You're joking right? I don't have to do that...right?"
- Me: I talked to Daddy and he said that you can't download "Gangnam Style".
Elizabeth: Why? Because of the S word? (S word being "sexy")
Me: Yes.
