: "Some people are born before you, so that's why they're older than you."
lilah: "What does your t-shirt say Mama?"
me: "Banana Republic."
lilah: "Banana? Ahahhahahahaahaaaaaaa, that's a funny thing for your t-shirt to say!" : Showing me some of her artwork: "Doesn't this picture look 'credible?" (incredible!) : "Did you know white shines in the dark? Well, I'm pretty sure it does, because I can see my wardrobe in the dark at night time." : "Mama! Don't say flippin or you'll get set out in a chair!" Talking to Baba one evening at bedtime:
lilah: "Baba, who's your birth mother?"
baba: "Na's my birth mother"
lilah: "Na?? Na had YOU in her belly??" me: "We had a fire bell at work today."
lilah: "Oh. For real"
me: No, there wasn't a fire, just smoke or something."
lilah: Well, we had a firebell at school one day, it wasn't for real either, just a practice one." : Talking to her stuffed animals one day: "No secrets. My Mom & Dad don't like secrets. Please don't whisper in my ear." : Are you sad about that Mum? Get over it. You'll get over it!"
me: "Banana Republic."

She is a funny girl.
ReplyDeleteI love the flippin' remark. Too cute.
oh my! she says the darndest things (can i say that or is that too much like flippin?). her earlier comment about whether or not ghosts can see (after putting a sheet over her head, i presume) had me in stitches when i read it a while back! it left such an impression that i spoke of it with my husband just last night and i had to stop and think if it was something my littlest had said or not! after a long dramatic pause, i remembered that perhaps it was a lilah-ism... oh my! my kids better start getting some of their own material! enjoy your trip to warmer climes...

ReplyDeleteGood to know you will always "get over it!". And the funniest part is that she IS right! ;)
