To Johnny, while playing with Lily and and Johnny on the floor:
Keep the small toys away from the choking hazard girl!

Discussing future prizes for her reward chart:
Emma: I think that after I use up my prizes, I should get some new ones.
Mama: What kinds of prizes do you want?
Emma: Maybe some little green papers.
Mama: Little green papers? Where do you get those?
Emma: In Dada’s wallet.

As Lily crawls towards her and Johnny, who are playing on the floor:
A baby! A huge baby is coming! Quick, we have to save all our toys!

Before a playdate:
I think I should give [a friend] a present. Maybe something I don’t like any more.
