Elijah quotes

With much inquisitiveness, Elijah asks this morning, "Hannah, why is your ponytail on the side of your head?"
Hannah's reply, "it's called a side ponytail."

Chasing Elijah down the sidewalk on our evening walk I yell, "I'm gonna get you!"
Elijah yelling with laughter, "no mommy!" Still running.
Me, "I'm gonna get you and kiss you!"
Elijah stops and turns around, "I wanna kiss!" And I walk up to him for a kiss. We hold hands and walk home.

Patting my jean skirt, which I hadn't worn for a year, Elijah says, "I wike deez pants Mommy."
I reply, "it's called a skirt."
"I like this skirt, Mommy, you should wear it every day!"
Elijah, you melt my heart. I hope you will do this for me 20 years from now.
