Eagle

Elise had an itchy back and asked me to scratch it. I had just cut my nails and so they were really sharp with some jagged edges. When I scratched her she said, "Stop scratching me. Your fingers are like...Eagles. They are like talons".  

Three and a half

Elise is three and a half.  Bananas!  Of course she is saying hilarious things on the daily.  A few:

1) We went to her friend's birthday party (the kid's mom is also my coworker).  My friend is Dutch, and therefore tall, at least 5-9.  She's probably about an inch taller than her husband, although I certainly wouldn't describe him as short.  Anyway, after the party, as we were driving home, Elise randomly announced, "Some mommies are tall and some daddies are short".  I asked her to clarify and she said, "Kelly's mommy is tall but her daddy is short.  My dada is tall but you are medium."

2) Elise has a funny habit of wanting to wear all her skirts down to the bottom of her belly.  She's convinced they are meant to be worn that way.
