How she got her name:"Mommy! Look at the cool poster Racheli gave me! There's Superman, and there's SupermanGirl."
Shortly after her brother's Bar Mitzvah:
"Grandma said that Flash is growing up. Can we kick him out of the house now?"
Late one night, punch drunk with exhaustion:
"I wonder what my brain looks like."
After drawing a picture for her aunt:
"I'm not done yet, I have to write my name. Wait... what's my name again?"
Telling a story:
"Once upon a time there was a scary monster. His name was Scary Monster."
And my all-time favorite, said when she was two years old:
"Oh Mummy, I yub you."
(To which of course I responded "Oh, sweetie, I yub you too.")

she sounds adorable and smart!
LOL. So funny. If only the rest of us were so quaint. But then we all can't be cute and funny.
"Can we kick him out?"
LOL!
Very sweet!
She sounds adorable. Kids like that keep you laughing.
i yub you?? I LOVE THAT!!
i have a little book where i wrote down the funny things they have said over the years and they all enjoy reading it. i wish they wouldnt grow up so dang fast!! shavuah tov!
I loved it when the kids added to the language. Some of their "new" words have remained with us for all these years and have become real "in" jokes for our family.
cute
She sounds so spunky! I love that picture of her. And I hope, for your sake, that she isnt reading this
Thank you all for your comments. The cool thing about her is that she has absolutely no idea how funny she can be.
BTW, "From the Mixed-up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler" was one of my favorite books as a kid.
Oh, man, Baila, I was trying to figure out why the title sounded so familiar. Thanks for sorting that out
"wait, what's my name again?"
that is too cute.
Too funny. :)
when i worked as a hospital nurse i started covered my hair, and i felt that my little cap with long hair beneath it looked something like batgirl's headcover. i loved identifying with her, so i found a cartoon picture of her, and stuck it right over the picture of me on the photo id i wore everyday. my pediatric patients loved that their nurse was batgirl! ;-)
adorable
