Quotes!

I've learned that having a 4-year-old in a house full of older kids results in a 4-year-old who often says things one wouldn't expect from someone her age. Here are a few of the latest phrases she has been trying out:

"Just follow my lead."

"Now if you will excuse me, I've got to do something."

"That's more like it!"

"My pleasure!"

"You can say that again!" (This one she said to herself after making another comment)

She still mixes in things that would be typical for a 4-year-old, too:

"This is inside out. It needs to be unside out."

Seth: Liv, do you want to wear your rain boots?

Livi: Yeah, it's wetty out.

Livi: (with a big smile) I want to be a doctor when I grow up.

Mom: I think you would make a great doctor.

Livi: (suddenly switching to a worried face) But....what if I don't know what to do?

Mom: Well, you would go to school first to learn how to be a doctor.

Livi: Oh, good.

And then we have a recent quote from Charlie:

Charlie: How do moms make milk for their babies?

Mom: I don't know exactly how it works, but the human body is pretty amazing, isn't it? A mom's body makes the perfect food for her baby. Even the fact that you can grow one human being inside the body of another human is amazing, don't you think?

Charlie: Yeah!..... And the body can take a 5-star meal and turn it into a lump of poop!
