Overheard at Our House

*The girls have been sick and kept losing their voice. Zella told me, "Mama, I have a figure of speech in my throat." Instead of saying she had a frog in her throat. That girl cracks me up!

*Madeline would like to be a princess and a fruit picker when she grows up. She is going to pick fruit for the orchard/pizza parlor that Zella would like to own when she grows up.

*Zella announced to us that she would like to marry many times. We could be in trouble with this one!

*Violet has a new catch phrase. She says "Oh, geesh." To everything. She puckers her lips when she says it. I'll have to try and get a video because it's too cute to miss.

*Madeline told me her heart was breaking because she missed Violet while she was at school. She also thought her heart would burst because she loved her Papa so much. She's pretty good at describing her emotions, although it isn't always cute. :)
