While playing with Claire
Lily: Claire's trapped! Claire's trapped!
Erin: Go help her!
Lily: NOPE.
My ribbit wants to hop.
Ribbit = frog
Come on! Join us!
Welcoming other parents and siblings to wait with us outside Claire's classroom at pick-up time
I neeeeeeed push buttons!
Referring to wanting to push buttons on my steering wheel while we sat in the (parked) car

I like your ring.
Listen to that music on my chin!
Holding headphones up to chin
Mommy, don't go!
Every day at nap time
Wouldn't smile...but gave me this look
Mommy, I so tired.
Not heard often around here, so when she said it, I had to note it.
Wakey: Ukulele
Oh. Ruth fell. Gravity. On Brynnie.
Her stuffed lamb (Ruth from The Star) fell off the coffee table (not onto but) near Brynn. And she's right: gravity did it.
I fell down tent.
I knocked over the tent.
Mommy...is that you?
Upon seeing me walk in her room after nap
Notices Brynn is absent
Where's the other one?
Picks up a piece of roasted sweet potato, cut into a semi-circle
Pirate hat! Pirate hat!
Owl wings! Owl wings!
Two triangles of cheese quesadilla flapping through the air

Oh...Precious!

Asking about my food- that I was actively eating- that she wanted
Wash cloth: Brynn's burp cloth
Bre-bra: Zebra
I got a great dee-ah!
I've got a great idea!
Besh: Fish
Or-port: Airport
A triangle! YAY!
Climbed onto the couch and snuggled into my leg "triangle" (bent legs while laying down)
I need to love Nana and give her kiss. And I need Poppy.
After she helped me get Brynnie's weekly picture, she wanted to get in on it.
Dance your shoes, Claire!
Kick along to the beat of the song in the car
Chop chop: Chip clip
Trums: crumbs
After I emptied the dishwasher, she wanted her animals to play on the "playground." We did this for a solid hour. Who knew that was possible?
Emeo: oatmeal
My animals going to Kee-ya!
My animals are going to Kenya!
Mommy, wow! Yours room 'mazing!
My Mom always sings "Stand Up! Stand Up for Jesus!" when she helps the girls stand up after diaper changes/clothing changes. Lily's take when she had a request of me:
Pick...me UP...for JESUS! (sung to the proper tune)
Lily was in a very temperamental mood.
Erin: Don't poke the bear, Claire. (referring to Claire somewhat provoking Lily)
Lily: Don't poke me, Claire! I bear! RAWR!
Lily: Numbers on your water bottle want to go somewhere. (Numbers = letters)
Erin: Where do they want to go?
Lily: Costco.
I love my tree friends!
Referring to some trees that she found beautiful
We're boo-boos.
Referring to herself and Brynna. I call them both "boo-boo" or "boo" pretty often.
Erin: Do you like your soup, Lily?
Lily: Yes! Thank you for my soup.
Pause
Lily: Mommy, you say (switches to high-pitch, fake voice) "you're welcome soup, Lily!"
Brad and I hug each other.
Awww...they yike each ovver.
Awww...they like each other.
Lily is truly a delightful little toddler. She is so kind, unbelievably grateful for everything, and seeks to include everyone in everything. Everyone is invited into her group and to be her friend. We pray that this is always her way.
