Quotable Quotes of the Week

As another fun weekend with the Pie begins, I thought I’d share some of our quotable quotes this week!  I’d love to hear your kids’ gems too – please share them in the comments or contact me about a guest post!  admin@mylifewithpie.com

What’s in a name?: 

• “A starts with me.”
•  “I have 2 As in my life.”
•  [To me]  “Is your name hon?”  I then explain pet names, since Anna’s been calling me “hon” lately.  To Heidi and me:  “I love you honey guys!”

Miscellaneous gems:

• “That bridge is broken! It’s got pine cones on it. Why?” – we have gone from associating pine cones with pineapples to associating them with traffic cones. LOL.
• “I missed you this morning. I was pretending I was driving to your office.”  - awww.
• [Talking to baby doll] “I’m the mom, okay? Listen to my words.  Do you understand me?”

A balanced diet is important.

• [Knowing that I hit a car in my parking garage last week] “Drive safely, okay?  You don’t want to bump a car again.”
•  “Can we go there?” – pointing to a cemetery as we drive by it.  I explain what a cemetery is.  Her reply?  “Can we go to the cemetery, can we, can we?” Me:  “But I just told you what a cemetery is. It’s not really a place we go visit unless we have a reason to, which we don’t.”  Anna:  “I still want to go there.”  – Distressing?  Funny?  Both?
•  “I peed on the potty!  Send a message to Heidi (who was already at work) to tell her!”
•   [While on potty] "I can’t pee as much because I’m getting bigger.” 
•  [Listening to Lady Gaga’s “The Edge of Glory” in the car.]  As I start singing with the radio, Anna says “No, that’s MY song!”  Translation:  Anna sings it and I am not allowed to sing along unless she says so.
•  [About 30 minutes later, “The Edge of Glory” comes on while we’re in a store.]  “It’s Lady Gaga! Just like in the car!”  Yep, she’s my kid all right….haha.
•  “You’re the best thing I ever had.”  - I think this has to be my favorite thing she’s ever said to me.
