Here’s a round up of a few of the funny, memorable things Madeline has said to us lately..

“Mommy, are you old?”

“Come here and see this Daddy…It’s increb-a-ble!” (Said when she saw me packing into a box a bunch of clothes that no longer fit her.)

(Said after she comes into the living room carrying a baby doll): “Look, I have baby Jesus. He was born in a manger. But now I am going to take him to the hospital so he can see a doctor. He’s sick.”

Madeline: “What will Erik be when he grows up? A grown-up?”
Me: “Yes, and he will be a man, and maybe a Daddy.”
Madeline: “A man? Wow, that’s a funny joke!”

“A new baby was born at the hospital today…A baby duckie!”

“All my candy is almost gone. But when it’s gone, I’ll just go trick-or-treating again and get more!”

(Said as we are making cookies): “I don’t think I like chocolate chips. They’re too spicy. No, I’m not being silly”
(Then, five minutes later): “mmm, these are good chocolate chip cookies.”

(Said after hearing a note of frustration in my voice): “Mommy, are you sad? mad? bad? tired? fustated?”

Madeline: “My real birthday is in May. But my pretend birthday is in March”
Me: “But I thought you said that your pretend birthday party was going to be today? It’s January right now. ”
Madeline: “I’m just pretending it’s March too”

“I want to pray before lunch! …Dear Man, thank you for this food.  Thank you for God.  Amen.”
