Why bang on the dog?&#8221; She is visibly upset, though I try to assure her that they are singing about banging on the door.  No animals are harmed in the lyrics of this song.<\/p>\n<p>Ezri has learned to recognize a false dichotomy:<br \/>\nAmanda:  &#8220;You can EITHER have stories with me and then nap OR you can go straight to nap.&#8221;<br \/>\nEzri: &#8220;I don&#8217;t want ANY of it.  I am stomping away.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ezri asks in a distressed voice, &#8220;Why did I pinch you? Why?&#8221;  Ummm. . . that&#8217;s for you to answer, Ezri.  I suggest you don&#8217;t do it again.<\/p>\n<p>Since learning how to play Blitzkrieg Bop on her Paperjamz quitar, Ezri when told it is time to leave sometimes says,<br \/>\n&#8220;Hey-Ho! Let&#8217;s Go! Hey-Ho! Let&#8217;s Go!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ezri knows about magic.  She pointed her magic marker at me and said, &#8220;It&#8217;s a magic marker.  I turn you into Zoe.  I turn you back into mama now.&#8221;  It was the orange marker that turned me into the orange muppet named Zoe.<\/p>\n<p>It has been a bit of a heatwave, so Ezri felt the need to cool off as she took off all her clothes she said, &#8220;Let&#8217;s do naked.&#8221;  And then she said, &#8220;Let&#8217;s do yoga.&#8221;  She proceeded into an elegant nude downward dog.  I may have a photo, though I will not be posting it here.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Mama is Ezri&#8217;s mama.  Amanda is Ezri&#8217;s friend.&#8221;<br \/>\n(Thanks, kiddo, you are most certainly Amanda&#8217;s Ezri!)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.ezriblau.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/blog.ezriblau.com\/2011\/07\/ezricantigny.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.ezriblau.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/blog.ezriblau.com\/2011\/07\/ezricantigny-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"ezricantigny\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-2640\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blog.ezriblau.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/blog.ezriblau.com\/2011\/07\/ezricantigny-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/blog.ezriblau.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/blog.ezriblau.com\/2011\/07\/ezricantigny.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(photos from our family photo shoot with www.jodiellen.com) Some collected comments of the past week or so: While listening to Love Shack by the B-52s, Ezri asks, &#8220;Why bang on the dog?
