The quotes just keep getting better

Making pretend soup with Mel one afternoon...

Mom: "Wow, this looks delicious!  What's in here?!"
Mel: "Meat with blood in it, blueberries, blackberries, and apples"

mmm...mmm...couldn't wait to dig in to that one!

*We had eaten a chicken drumstick the night before and she noticed it had some red spots near the bone and she asked why there was blood on her food.  I explained that all the meat we eat has blood in it but we cook it to make is safe to eat and even though it still looked like blood, her food was cooked and safe to eat. 

Princess Brains

We were reading a book about how the body works this morning and learning about muscles, bones, brains, and blood.  A while after, she took a drink of water and she said,

Melanie: "This water is really helping my brains"

Me: "It sure is Melanie, and your bones, and muscles, and blood"

Mel (walking away and talking to herself): "sometimes princess shoes help my brains too"

haha...yes, being a princess would really help my brains too!

Apples and Bananas

Singing "I like to eat apples and bananas" with Melanie and we started with eeples and baneenees and she said,  "NO BANANAS!"....looks like I have a perfectionist on my hands.
