Quotable Quotes

Mike got a tiny scratch on his finger and came running over to me, wanting an "old-fashioned band-aid" on it. I put it on and he ran away saying, very excitedly, "Woohoo! I can walk now! I have two feet now that I can walk on! And I can wiggle my finger!"


Timmy:  "I couldn't sleep at all last night! All I did was snore the whole night so I couldn't get any sleep."  


I'm reading a book to them and Jacob interrupts. "Why do they call the girl Joyce? Is it because she lifts up joists?"


Mike: "Grandma is my sister."


Mike: "It's an airplane! It's an airplane!" <pause> "That airplane is a turkey vulture."


"Jacob, don't drive that cart around anymore - I think it's broken."

Jacob: "Yeah, I know. That's just what I was observing."


Jacob: "Come on, Tim! We haven't ridden our 4-wheelers at all today and that is really bad!"


Timmy: "This carrot is over-rotten."
