  • I had a hard day.  I need to lay down.
  • I want...choclate icecream with a cherry on top and the sprinklies
  • I want  a Star one flavored bug juice (note: star flavored = cherry.  Obviously because cherry star kisses from Dairy Queen are red and Star flavored)
  • This sucks
  • I want to go back pack ride.  I want to take a kitty on it.
  • Oops.
  • It's a hard poop mommy (Like a true girl, Molly hates admitting that she too must poop)
  • Peepee on the potty peepee on the potty (sings)
  • I make the water turn green Mommy (we dump blue food coloring water in her potty to help make peeing more exciting; try it at home, spice up your potty time.)
  • I dump it. I dump the peepee in the potty
  • I flush it.
  • Mommy I flush your potty?
  • Yaay Mommy you go peepee on the potty too! Good job Mommy! (followed by a high five)
  • Build me a castle with the pillows. and the blanket.

  • You need a bandaid daddy?
  • Daddy don't pick your toe
  • Mommy Daddy needs a bandaid (the above three were in conjunction to a hang nail I had on my toe, which Molly carefully observed daily until it was healed, informing Sue at every instance when it needed a bandaid.)
  • I got a boo boo too. Need a bandaid (Molly's boo boos are invariably almost always so tiny you can hardly see the remnant of a scab that was a boo boo like three weeks ago.  But she's very insistent. And of course anytime someone else has a boo boo, hers are waaay worse and she always has to compare.)
  • I kiss it better?
  • Say your sorry to Daddy Mama.  Gib Daddy a hug. (Molly always takes my side in arguments; yet another reason why she rocks).
  • That a dumb lady. (to the lady that almost hit them the other day because she ran a stop sign while on a cell phone)
