Kid Quotes
Heard in the Harris Household…
“Sometimes you can be fun, Mom.”
This was Justin’s encouragement to me as we played catch after I spectacularly fumbled the ball (picture Jerry Lewis/dancing circus bear).
“Don’t mind the screaming, Mom; it’s happy screaming.”
Justin in the apartment, playing with Anna in another room.
“Daddy broke my heart, Daddy broke my heart…”
This is a prime example of our sweet Anna Drama Queen. For those of you familiar with Myers-Briggs testing, I’m thinking that she’s a feeler. Scott was out at a meeting, and the kids and I were collecting books to read before bed. Anna picked up a book and started to sob as she remembered some painful Anna/Daddy memory. Knowing Anna, it was probably something like Scott just reading the book to her once instead of twice.
“Me never ever see her again.”
Anna again. This was said, again through many tears, as we said goodbye to a friend on the bus and got off. We see this friend, Georgette, every Sunday. Anna cried for a full five minutes about this sad goodbye.
Just so you know, Anna is usually happy. Don’t want to give the wrong impression.
