Fruit Inspection

Savannah and I, walking through Wal-Mart:

Me: Hey, look! Wall-E is out on DVD already.
Her, very matter of factly: And Blu-ray.

Emery, finishing an apple, brings me the seedy core and says, “Mommy, da Bible says dat’s yucky.”

Savannah and Emery were playing and they came into the kitchen with pretend suitcases. Savannah looks at me and makes this announcement: “Mom, we have decided to go on a vacation. We are leaving at 9, 8 central.”

Emery is forever getting in trouble for not sitting still while eating meals at the table. One morning I had to leave the kitchen for something, but before I left I reminded him of where I expected him to be when I got back.

After just a few minutes I returned and found him scrambling to get back in his seat. He pretended not to see me as he shouted, “Stop it CHAIR!!! I said I don’t want to play with YOU right now!!!!”
