Quotes

Emmie started keyboard lessons this past week.  Unbeknownst to her, Mom signed her up.  Despite not wanting to go, she had fun.  On the way home,
Emmie:  How about I have to practice keyboard for 3 minutes, or else I don't get dessert every night?
Mom:  That is up to you.  If you want to learn keyboard, practicing is a good idea.
Emmie:  Yeah, 3 minutes it is.

Later in the week, while practicing (for 3 minutes):
Emmie:  When we travel to like FL, or somewhere like that, can I take my keyboard with me?
Eric:  Yes, that is why we got you a portable roll-out keyboard.

One morning,
Emmie:  There is now an Emmie 2.  She was just released.
Mom:  How is Emmie 2 different than Emmie 1?
Emmie:  She asks, and doesn't beg.  She always listens and never lies.
Mom:  Did Emmie 1 lie?
Emmie:  Sometimes, like to Shaylee every now and again.
We assured her that we like all versions of Emmie, but Emmie 2.0 was a nice addition.

The next morning, Emmie gave Eric a hug good-bye and wished him Good Luck at his meeting.  She turned to Mom after he left, "That was Emmie 2.  Emmie 1 sometimes runs from hugs."

Mom created a City on Minecraft and named it, Tweeck:
Mom:  Get it?  It is our family.
Emmie:  Huh?
Mom:  T for Turner, W for Wrigley....
Emmie:  Oh, I thought you meant that our family was tweeck.  What does tweeck mean anyway?
Mom:  Spelled differently, tweak means to change or slightly alter something.
Emmie:  Got it.  Like Emmie 2, or a snake shedding its skin.
