This conversation was overheard a couple of weeks ago:
Abby: You know what, Emma? I figured out how I can get the dog I want that mom won't let us have.
Emma: How?
Abby: When a guy asks me to marry him, I am going to tell him yes but only if he buys me a dog!
Emma: That is a GREAT idea! I am going to do that too!
This week Emma came downstairs for breakfast and the Today show was on the TV. This is the conversation:
Emma: Mom, do you know the brown man on TV?
Mom: No, who?
Emma: BARACK OBAMA, mom!
Mom: Oh, yes. I know who he is. Why?
Emma: I think he would make a great president!
Mom: Why is that?
Emma: Well, he looks like a great president and he has hair like Daddy but no cavities like Daddy!
Emma gets off the bus yesterday and tells me about school. She says that the teacher gives out 3 cards each day to the kids who acted the best. The kids then use these cards to purchase treasures (pencils, pens, notepads, etc) from the treasure chest. Emma received a card earlier this week and got a pencil. Here is the conversation:
Emma: Mrs Clayton gave out cards today but I didn't get one.
Mom: Really?
Emma: Yeah. She called out Tristan's name and I said, " Tristan, REALLY? He gets a card!"
Mom: Emma, did you say that out loud?
Emma: Yes. Mrs. Clayton said, "Who said that?"
Mom: Did you tell the truth?
Emma: Yes. I told her I did.
Mom: What did she say?
Emma: That wasn't very nice!

LOL!! I love the things kids say. =)
Oh my gosh, they are too cute!! Emma cracks me up. I so wish her and Nathan were in class together. Actually, it's probably best that they aren't. We have to have her over soon, Nathan asked for her the other day.
