...that is what my daughter said to me today. Out of the blue, with no prodding. Not like all the times I make her say "I wuv you, Mommy". This was real -- from the heart. I had been away from her for most of the day and when I got home she climbed up on my lap, put her arms around my neck, and said it.
I read someone's blog who had said about their child, "she is the answer to the question 'Why?' ". Well said.
Recent Ellie-isms:
"Mommy Kafween!" -- a copy-cat version of the "you're in big trouble now" first-middle name combo all parents do. "Ellie Kathleen!" She said this to me when she got mad the other day.
"Stinkerbell Tickers" -- stickers are her currency these days. She gets so excited that she gets her consonants transposed. She loves "stinkerbell" ....and tickers.
"I nakied myselp!" -- when she took her clothes off by herself without permission. She was impressed!
Children seldom misquote. In fact, they usually repeat word for word what you shouldn't have said. ~Author Unknown
