2020 Flashback 

Me, "After this walk, I'm going to take a shower and make myself presentable."

#StuffMyGirlSays, "What for?!"

Me, "Because it's nice to get cleaned up and look nice sometimes."

She, "But we can't go anywhere anyway... remember...Pandemic."

Age 10

#StuffMyGirlSays regarding the vacation/birthday schedule on Tuesday: 

"We'll wake up, you'll talk about how great it is to be my parents..."

LOL #TrueAndHilarious

Age 9

Regarding Disneyland:

"How do they know it is the happiest place on earth? How do they know your home isn't the happiest?."

Age 7

#StuffMyGirlSays "Why don't you just give me $110 dollars so I can buy an American Girl Doll."

Me, "Many reasons. AND you said you wanted to save your own money because that would make it more special."

She, "I'm just a kid. Sometimes I have bad ideas."

Age 6

Me, "Enough with the potty talk!"

She, in a matter of fact voice, "I do have a sense of potty." 

Age 6

#StuffMyGirlSays "I'm so sweet everything else tastes sour."

Age 5

"Little kids aren't allowed to do patience.

Age 5

For you Jessie Fans, this one comes from David, another participating parent at our school:

"When I had Jessie in cooking last week we made a flatbread recipe from Finland and part of the lesson was looking at the map to see where Finland was and then we asked the kids if they knew where their relatives immigrated from. Some kids knew and were answering things like Canada, Mexico, Taiwan, etc. Then Jessie yelled out, "MY MOM CAME FROM NEW YORK CITY!" We all busted out laughing. It was so cute."

Age 4

#StuffMyGirlSays "It is good to wake up early because then you have a really lot of day!"

Age 4

Mom I love that so much it makes me want to twirl!

Sadly I didn’t note what "that" was!

Age 3

"I want to be a paleontologist." Oh? Why? "They get to dig stuff up and use glue and then they find out what dinosaur it is. It is kind of like a puzzle or a mystery."

Age 3

First request of the morning. "Mommy can I have a chocolate?" I'm sorry Jessie, not for breakfast. "But when you are little I let you have chocolate!"

Age 3

Regardingjumping over Dad while he lies in bed. "Wow, that was pretty dangerous. Let me try it again!"

Age 2

"abolina apolika ballareeto, abolina apolika ballareeto" What does that mean Jessie? "It means people should sing!"
