Ellery

Ellery says funny things ALL the time.  I need to start writing them down because I forget what she says.  She makes me laugh everyday though.  Here are a couple things she said today:

(background note:  Aayla was in her high chair eating beans and she started gagging and coughing on them.)

I say:  "Oh, no Aayla are you ok???"

Ellery:  "Oh mom, she's just choking!!!"


(another background: We were eating soup.  I looked up at Ellery and she was looking quite distressed/ shocked, and holding onto her mouth.)

Ellery:  "Oh no, I think I accidentally swallowed something."

Me:  "What did you accidentally swallow?"

Ellery:  "It was something green.  What was that?"

(It was a green chille)

Me:  "Those are just like seasonings to help make the soup taste good."

Ellery:  "I don't like seasonings.  I don't like me soup to taste good."




Ellery:  "Mom, when Aayla gets bigger and gets long hair, and I get big, then I can cut her hair for her!"

Me:  "Oh no, you can't cut her hair.  Only big people can cut hair like me or Abbie."

Ellery: "Ya mom that's what I said, when I get big!"


Ellery:  "Abbie likes to have her hair long mom."

Me:  "Yes, do you want to grow your hair out long like Abbie?"

Ellery:  "No, I want to grow my hair out long like RAPUNZEL!"

Ok, so those aren't really that funny.  I can't think of her funnier quotes.  Maybe my brain will work better a different day.
