quotes


Our little girl has gone from tiny newborn, to stubborn toddler and now to bossy three year old who plays by her own rules.

She always seems to be saying something hilarious, usually when she's dead serious. Here are some quotes from the last week.

While going through security at the airport in Paris, the security agent tried to strike up a conversation with her.
Agent: Hi little girl, do you speak English?
E: No, I speak German, just German.

She's sticking to her story, and though she finally admits she's from America and not a country called German-A, liked she previously said, she still refuses to believe she speaks English.

E: Mom, what kind of animal makes Coke?
Me: Humans.
E: What does my little lamby make?
Me: Kebabs.

While powering through her third yogurt of the day (she's on her second set of six for five days),
Rocky: Do you like yogurt?
E: (Sighing) No, I like my daddy.

The other day we made cup cakes and while making the frosting, I turned around to find her spooning it into her mouth as fast as she could.
Me: Stop! You can't eat frosting with a spoon, it will make you sick.
E: Eating it with a fork make me better?
Me: No.
E: Knives?

We LOVED these Ellie-isms. I read them to the children and we all giggled!

What kind of an animal DOES coke come from? And how come you didn't post that on family journal?

I miss E!!! She is so dang cute. I'm afraid Grandpa Ricker might have influenced one of her questions...sorry. I'm pretty sure you know which one.
