Anna Quotes

  • Anna in the middle of our preschool globe demonstration (for no reason apparent to myself or anyone else, mind you):
    "Jack is my boy!"
  • After taking Anna with me to the Prenatal Yoga Center to hear a friend give a talk:
    "I did yoga when Winnie was in my tummy."
  • Anna, it's time to stop wearing diapers to bed and start wearing Pull-ups.
    • "but that doesn't make sense..."
    • "but that is just not acceptable"
  • Recently I found Anna holding one of her stuffed animal Nemos, a bit soggy. Our conversation went like this:
"My fish is wet."
Where did the water come from?
"My butt." "My fish jumped into the pee-pee."
  • Anna, returning from a playdate with Cole that Jenny took her to, upon seeing Mommy taking the brothers out, all bundled up, in their stroller:
    "Mommy, how did you get out of the house?"
  • "If you don't push me in the laundry basket Mommy, I'll put you in time out."
    As an aside: Anna never just makes me go into time out; she straps me in using any available restraining device.
  • We are in the library. Anna sees a globe. She gets excited and walks closer.
    "Mommy, does it have a smart pen?"
  • Anna wakes up one morning at 5AM. We get downstairs, I sit in the chair with her. She looks at me.
    "I think somebody is hungry..."
    Wow maybe if I teach her how to use the toaster and leave the syrup out on the couter I could sleep another hour. Or two.
