Elisabeth on Love

Elisabeth was crying and throwing a mini-fit. I was rubbing her back. We had this conversation about love.

(Momma) Elisabeth, I love you.
(Elisabeth) I don't love you.
(Momma) I will always love you, no matter what.
(Elisabeth) I only love you when I am happy.
(Momma) Do you love anyone when you are unhappy?
(Elisabeth) Only God.

Overheard at Bathtime

"Momma, I like being creative but I do not like taking baths."

Hello Kitty Land, anyone?

We are planning a family vacation for next year. We are headed to Disneyland and Legoland. This will be a first for the family. We are all excited about the trip. The boys are especially excited about Legoland. But Elisabeth is not that impressed with the idea.

Every time we talk about Legoland, Elsie says,

"I want to go to Hello Kitty Land!"

She's adamant and doesn't seem to understand that Hello Kitty land doesn't exist.

Sometimes she says,

"I want to go to Hello Kitty World! I mean, Hello Kitty land, actually."
