Quotes from Elizabeth

I know I haven't blogged much lately. It's been a combination of 2 things - 1) nothing much has really been going on and 2) Facebook (the ultimate timewaster).

So, since I still have the problem of #1, I thought I'd try to fulfill my blog quota by posting random quotes from Elizabeth.

Earlier today, I caught Elizabeth blowing kisses at the ceiling. When I asked her what she was doing, she said she was "sending kisses up to God". How precious. I think I need to do more of that myself.

Elizabeth caught David off-guard earlier this week by running up and giving him a big hug and telling him, "Daddy, when I grow up, I want to marry a man who treats me just like you do." (Yes, Mommy has been telling her she should do that for a while now, but it was her idea to share it with Daddy!) It was extra sweet, because we had friends over who got to hear it (and see David about to cry).

Elizabeth has been very adamant lately that she wants to have a baby girl when she grows up (must run in the family, huh, Aunt Amy?). When I told her that God gets to choose what kind of baby she had, she said that was alright, "as long as God chooses a girl!"

Speaking of babies, a few weeks ago, Gran was here and was telling Elizabeth about another little girl who was about to become a big sister. Elizabeth's eyes got really wide, then she tiptoed over, put her hand on my belly and told me that she wanted to be a big sister too. Since that's not in the plans for our family, I had to think fast. So, I appealed to her darker side - I told her that if we had a baby, she would have to share all of her toys. Plus, I would be busy taking care of the baby and wouldn't be able to play with her as much. So, she quickly decided we didn't need a baby after all. (Thank goodness!)
