notable quotables

(in deference to my kids' love of Jeopardy)

Heard around the house today:

Sam: "It isn't fun, but it sure is easy." About an activity book he was working on--I told him he didn't need to do any of it if it wasn't fun, but he just replied that it was easy. Okay then!

Annika, with great joy and excitement in her voice: "Mama, I'm going to be five too, just like Sam-boy!"

Annika, confused to Harry, "Why do you call Baby Jane, 'Emma'?" Um, I don't know, maybe because it's her name. Oddly enough she said "Emma," not "Enna." She actually used the m sound, the absence of which is driving her speech teacher crazy.
