I'm sorry I was acting so crazy. If I hadn't found that paper, I would have been in trouble.

I know you're crazy, but I love you.

Poppy celebrated her 4th Birthday yesterday!

I went to outerspace when I was a little girl. But I was sad because I didn't want to go fast. I want to go slow to outerspace because it makes me so happy.

I need to stay awake so I don't make a mistake in my dream.

I want to go to China to eat lunch.

I'm never going to be happy again ever.

And all of this said before noon

The music makes me ouchie on my forehead.

Thanks Mom, Thanks. That's very helpful.

I have an idea. My hair is too hot for my idea.

I'm the itchiest girl I ever met.

Comments on Candy

I love yellows. They make me round and fresh and happy all at the same time.

I had a bad dream about my shadow.
I slept on the earth day and

I slept off the earth night,
and those are opposites about shadows.

Be careful. I don't want you to get hit by a car.
Then I would get hurt and turn into a baloon.

Hey Mom, I'm on the Earth!
Remember Mom, I'm on Earth?
Poppy's on Earth. Poppy's on Earth.
Poppy's on Earth. Poppy's on Earth.

"Ramen noodles."
"You want some ramen noodles?"
"Ramen noodles, please."
"It'll take a few minutes to make them."
"I'm sick of this. I'm going to my room."

You will break it.

Maybe I need a new head, because it needs to be a cherry.

The Impetus

So many times in the last year, our daughter has said something that should have been written down. We don't want to forget her humor, perspective or ideas. We entertained the idea of writing her quotes in a journal but never got around to it. Since we got the blogging bug, we decided this would be a good forum.
