Ezri Speaks

Here are a couple photos of Ezri and her friends who are off to spend over a year in New Zealand later this month. We’re gonna miss these girls. Ezri and C are making their heads into a balloon and a toy picnic basket respectively in the one photo.

Another collection of quotes from Ezri:

“You parents are waitresses. You bring us our food every night.”
By this sort of logic, we are also chefs, valets, chauffeurs, teachers, and personal shoppers. Parents are a lot of things.

“I can set the table like a grand master.”
She is increasingly helpful in getting ready for meals, but realistically more of a yellow belt.

“Kitty is witty. Witty kitty. I am making poetry.”

“Manchi is the goodest cat. . .and Ellie and Sushi too.” I love that we still get grammatical errors by overusing the rule. Also, she may not yet understand superlatives.

“It’s no problem.” Ezri has started using this phrase when asked to do things like pick up or get something for her brother. It is accompanied by a little hand wave that makes it truly adorable. Also, it is said brightly when she is in a helpful mood and that makes it attractive.

Ezri and her friend, Sean, disappeared into a mini corn maze and repeatedly ran through emerging on the other side. Until that one time they did not emerge. Sean’s father and I finally went in each from one end to look for the kids. When I caught up to her this was the explanation.
Me: Why didn’t you come out?
Ezri: I was a power ranger.

“I am making a pink disaster.” Said while using her bath paints to wildly pink the wall. Pink Disaster would make a good band name in future.

“No grown-ups and no dinosaurs and no bad guys allowed in Kidland.” She declared her room to be Kidland.
