I love Drew, Valentine, Moses, my parents, my siblings, my extended family, my in-laws, Harry Potter, being a mom, coca-cola, Jane Austen, reading, ballet, opera, 30 Rock, modeling/fashion reality shows, dresses, Virginia, Starbucks hot chocolate, macaroni and cheese, baking, the smell of pools, antique stores, hydrangeas
Me: "Moses, NO! Do not do that, that's so naughty!"
Valentine: "I'm being nice a you Mama. I'm nice."
Drew (coming home to the kids in tears and me seething): "What happened?? What's wrong?"
Me: "Um... they suck. No, that was immature, I'm sorry, I take that back....... They're horrible."
Micah: "I'm gonna man up, be brave, and go see that movie." (about 'War Horse')
Me: "Valentine, what do you want for breakfast?"
Valentine: "Um... eggs and peanut butter sandwich."
While cleaning up Valentine after she peed all over herself and my mom's couch-
Me: "Valentine!!! We do NOT go pee-pee in our underwear!!! You're a big girl, you know that!! We do NOT do that!!!!"
Valentine: (looking down) "It's not so terrible Mama." (looks at me) "It's not so terrible."
Me: "Yes it is, it is so terrible. Don't do it again."
Valentine: (looking down again muttering) "It's not so terrible Mama....."
Page: "You're gonna diiiie!"
Dad: "Do we use these, can I throw them out??"
Jordan: "Yeah you can throw them away we don't use them anymore...... but that one Dance Dance Revolution Pad has so many dear memories."
I started to nurse Moses while some of the family was around....
Merry "Drew, do you wish that was you?"
She has been on FIRE lately!
Jessie: "So, how was Page and Ted's honeymoon?"
Kasi: "Good, they said pretty much all they did was hang out in the hotel room and on the beach."
Merry: "And make-out."
Me: "Valentine, please stop doing that."
Valentine: "WHAT'D YOU SAY?!" (continuing what she's not supposed to do)
Me: "Valentine, that's enough!"
Valentine: "WHAT'D YOU SAY??!" (still doing it)
Me: "Valentine! Sto.."
Valentine: "WHAT'D YOU SAY?! WHAT?!" (still doing it)
Summer (addressing everyone): "So, if you could have a million dollars but could never use the internet again would you take it? Which would you rather have?"
Many arguments ensued about whether a million dollars is worth more than a life time's use of the internet..... after a few minutes we hear.....
Merry: "So, would you rather have food or sex?"
Silence.
Everyone: "What did you say Merry???"
"Did you just say sex?"
Nico: "She didn't, she said text."
Me: " No, she said sex."
Merry: "Uh, yeah, I say SEX."
Valentine: "Whoah Momma, she's so heavy!" (while holding Moses)
Valentine: "Happy Tine-tine's Day!" (on Valentine's day)
While Valentine is awake in her crib at midnight and being ignored by her annoyed parents: (yelling) "Momma?!........ Hey Momma?............ Mooooommmmmaaaaaaa!......... Daddy?............ Bicah?!................. ANYBODY!!! HEY ANYBODY!!!!!!!!"
Valentine: "Aw, come on!"
Kasi: "I was a creepy teenager actually."
Merry: "Um, Ted. Probably at my wedding I will dance with you third. First my husband, then my dad and then you."
Yelling from the other room-
Me: "Valentine?"
Valentine: "What?!"
Valentine: "Wight back!"
