A collection of conversation and quotes from Ezri.<\/p>\n

“I am a big girl. You are a woman.” As she leaves the room ahead of me, “C’mon, woman!”<\/p>\n

“I am a hooker. See, I have hooks for hands.” She likes the idea of Captain Hook and I am certain he would be even better with two hook hands. But, we really need her to rename this supervillain persona she’s developing.<\/p>\n

Ezri is having trouble settling at bedtime. She makes up reasons she needs Eric to come back to see her. An example :
\ne (calling from her bed): Eric I NEED you.
\nE (exasperated): What do you need, Ezri?
\ne (pauses to think): My thumb is wet.
\nE: Did you put in your mouth?
\ne: Yes, dry it for me. I need you.
\nA few nights ago after we thought she was actually settled. We heard this over the baby monitor from the basement.
\n“Eric. . . ERIC!. . .Eric Benjamin! I need you. . . . . RIGHT NOW.” We laughed for a good long time before responding. I am afraid Ezri will have to learn the hard way that invoking the use of the middle name to command attention is a pattern of speech whose power is for the parents to use, not the offspring.<\/p>\n

Ezri is enjoying singing the My Little Pony theme song. She can only sing three words – “My Little Pony” but she will keep at it repeating them for a good long time. Notably, she has only watched two episodes of the show EVER and it has a powerful place in her consciousness. The second episode we watched I tried to skip the theme song, but she called me on that and asked for the song.<\/p>\n

We’ve stopped getting so many “Why?” questions, but now get gems like this,
\n“Do Wampas eat ponies?”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
