Wisdom Just Drips From My Mouth

A few of my favorite sayings/exchanges from the weekend...

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Emma: "Mommy's good at tickling, Daddy's good at drawing, and I'm the best bubble letterer."
Chris: "Sophie, what are you good at?"
Sophie: "Birds."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Em: "Violet sits at my table. She took the other kid's spot who transformed to another school."
Me: "You mean transferred."
Em: "Nooooo, I mean transformed."
Me: "'Transformed' means to turn into something new."
Em: "Right. That's what I'm saying! She turned into a kid that goes to a different school."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Em: "Daddy, you are the weirdest kid in this family."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chris: "Em, I'm not going to wrestle with you anymore if you don't stop tooting."
Emma: "It's not my fault! I can't hold in my toots like my pee and poop. It makes no sense!"
[Loud toot, followed by mad giggling.]
Emma: "Oops Daddy. Sorry. I farted in your face again."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Soph: "Tickle my pieces. TICKLE MY PIECES!"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Soph: [Screaming-Tantrum-Screaming-Tantrum-Screaming-Tantrum]
Em: "Sophie, pipe down. It's not like somebody is stabbing you or something."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Me: "Isn't it a beautiful fall day?"
Em: "Yes. I hope I don't die today. I love life."
 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Me: "I guess it's warmer out than I thought."
Em: "I told you. I knew what the weather was outside because I can see the future."
Me: "Really? You can see the future, huh?"
Em: "Ugh. I knew you were going to say that."
Me: "Ha ha, very funny."
Em: "What the heck are you talking about?"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Em: "You are more wrong than the trees in India!"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Em: "If I had $100, I would buy all the Fun Dip packages in all the world."
Soph: "If I had $5, you know what I like? Candy. With mermaid tails on it."

Oh, same. Plus as another bird aficiando how could I not be in love? Seriously, I am totally matchmaking D and Sophie. I want her for my daughter-in-law! You know, once she gets over the screaming tantrums. You can have those.
