Me: “Emma, I’m going to take the dogs out for a walk.”
Emma: “OK, I’ll stay here and I’ll be fine…and if any monsters come, I’ll PUNCH THEM IN THE FACE or I’ll poke the in the eye.”

Emma: “Mommy, I just want to be a ladybug!”

Today I went to pick up the kids from Summer Day Camp and when I arrived Emma was enjoying a Fancy Nancy sticker book with a new friend…

Me: “Emma, who’s your friend?”

Emma: “This is my best friend?”

Me: “What’s her name?”

Emma: “I dunno….”

Emma: “I have the hiccups”
Michelle: “Your diaphragm is spasming”
Emma: “Oh…that means I’m going to die.”

I was putting Emma to bed tonight and as I went in for the hug and kiss she pulled away and said,

Emma: “Oh Po, your chin is so pokey!”
Me: “Oh, sorry!”
Emma: “That’s ok, just go and cut your chin off!”
Me: “Ok…”
Emma: “No Po, go and cut your whole face off!”
Me “…”
Emma: “No Po, just kidding…”

Emma just got back from a friends birthday party and she won’t stop spinning around, so I asked her:

Me: “What did you do at the party Emma?”

Emma: “I ATE YOUR FACE at the party!”

Lately we’ve been bribing Evan to try new things. He’s saving his money for an iPod Touch, so he’s very interested in making money. Tonight the new food was lettuce, and we offered him 1 cent for every piece of lettuce he ate. Of course, he tried to bargain and said,

Evan: “What about 1 Million dollars for every piece of lettuce?”
Michelle: “Sure, why not…”
Evan: “Really, 1 Million dollars? WOW… Thats enough for FIVE iPod touches!”

Emma: “What kind of drink did you get?”
Me: “I got a Coke.”
Emma: “Oohhhh…that’s not good for you. It has lots of salt and sour.”

We were dying Easter eggs today and Emma said, “How did you make the yellow, is it pee pee?”

Me: “Eat those grapes, they are very good for you, they have lots of good antioxidants.”
Emma: “Yeah, and they have salad inside too!”
