Upon our arrival in Vegas (way back in April):
Mama, this place looks like a crazy place!
Reading the water landing section of the airplane safety brochure on the same trip:
Mama: This teaches you how to stay safe.
Emma: No, it’s about swimming.
To Mike, as he’s leaving for work:
Dada, you have to tell your work friends that I know how to do somersaults!
Writing her friends’ names:
Emma: Mama, how do you spell Claire?
Mama: C-L-A-I-R-E
Emma: That’s a pretty short name. It’s shorter than Emma.
Mama: Are you sure? How many letters are there?
Emma: one, two, three, four, five six.
Mama: So it’s longer than Emma, because Emma has four letters and Claire has six, and four is smaller than six.
Emma: No. I wrote the letters very small, so it is shorter than Emma.
MaryAnne is a craft loving educator, musician, photographer, and writer who lives in Silicon Valley with her husband Mike and their four children.
Her expression is priceless in this pic! LOVE the quote to Mike before work. She is so much fun!
I agree with Emma, Vegas is a crazy place!
And I love the Claire v. Emma. Kids are always one step ahead of us!!! :)
And I love your banner with “EMMA” and her people drawings. Love them!

Too funny about the last one – that’s pretty much how Anna explained her reasoning for May being the shortest month of the year :) Great quotes.

Love these – especially the discovery that the length of names is entirely dependent upon letter size. :)

The quotes posts are always my favorite!
So cute! My Emma told me last night that God didn’t answer prayers. I became quite concerned and told her yes He does. Then she said, “But I prayed and asked Joshua to stop fighting with me but he didn’t stop!” Hmmm…trying to figure out how to explain this one!
