From the Mouth of Babes

Lucy: For my birthday I want a Sofia the First dress...and a Sofia amulet...and Sofia shoes...oh and her crown.  I would look so beauuuuuuutiful in her crown mommy!  Oh and a scooter and...and ...and etc... (continued for 5 uninterrupted minutes...I know because I was timing).
Me: vague smile which clearly indicates that she will not be getting everything on her list
Lucy: Well...let's just talk about this later


Gracie: Ah-dun ah-dun ah-dun!  {translation: I am done being stuck in this high chair and would like to get down NOW!}


Grant: Goalie-goalie-goalie {translation: ??????____but it clearly indicates feelings of happiness- really it is the CUTEST sound}


Jack: Mom! What is with you today? (remarked rather loudly while I was teaching actions during singing time)
Pretty sure I embarrass him sometimes!

Lucy: Mom do you play with my toys in your tub or no?
(she ends just about all of her questions with the phrase "or no?")

Gracie:  eh?  eh? (her response to almost any question we ask her)

Chad{wearing his usual BYU sweat shirt}:  Lucy what does it say on my sweatshirt?
Lucy: (pointing to each letter) B...Y.... ummm B...Y...ummm what's it again?
**this goes on for an uncomfortably long time and she appears to be thinking very hard.  Eventually with excessive hints she gets it only to be completely stumped again the next time! This  happens several times a week at our house.  A house in which BYU is talked about non-stop and the all the kids make Chad cards decorated with BYU all over it.  Should we be worried?

Marian: Mom did I make my goal today?
Me: I don't know what was your goal? ( I honestly didn't know anything about it)
Marian:  To be good the whole day and not talk sassy to you!


Lucy:  DADDY!  Don't forget your hug and kiss!!!!
(Said every.single.day!  The mornings when she does forget she breaks down in tears until she can give Chad his morning "loves" over the phone.
