Quotable Two Year Old - August

One day I asked Els if she wanted a peanut butter and jelly sandwich OR a tuna fish sandwich for lunch.  She thought for a moment and responded, “I would like a jellyfish sandwich!”  She has since requested a jellyfish sandwich to eat once or twice per week. 

While at alive after five, the band was doing a sound check.  When the sax player started playing loudly, Els clasped her hands over her ears and said, “ouch!  That hurt my feelings!”.

There is a huge curly willow tree at my parent’s house that we planted for my Mom’s 50^th birthday.  Elsinore knows it as “Grandma’s Tree”.  While on a walk about with Uncle Scott to see “Grandma’s Tree” she looked up into the tree and said, “Grandma, are you up there?”. At that exact moment a hawk screamed from down below in the hollow.

Quotable 2 year old - June and July

More quotes from the growing conversationalist.  It is amazing that she thinks these things up on her own!

Elsinore singing her FAVORITE song and adding her own special verses, "...The mama on the bus says I love Elsinore, I love Elsinore, I love Elsinore.  The Mama on the bus says I love Elsinore, all around the town.  The Daddy on the bus says I love paint, I love paint, I love paint..."

While smashing corn flakes on the table uncle scott said, "Elsinore, if you are going to play with your food instead of eating it, we’ll take it away." To which Els responded, “I KNOW the RULES, Uncle Scott”

Elsinore and Olivia have figured how to harvest fruit from the raspberry bush at Matt and Jana’s. they pick it clean of ripe berries daily.  Els was picking berries and Uncle Scott explained that there were no more red berries and the ones she was picking weren’t ready yet and she needed to stop picking them. Els looked at the raspberry bush and asked, “Raspberries, are you finished yet?”
