Things kids say

Julia just said to me: "Mom, I'm really in a big Julia Rowe phase."

I should hope so. I wonder what phase she was in before she got into a Julia Rowe phase.

And Madeleine has picked up a new word this week: "shoe." Now, one would think that after alllll that "sh" practice when she persisted on saying "shit," she'd have no trouble at all saying "shoe." Wrong. "Madeleine, that's your shoe!" "Doo! Doo."

Close enough, for now.
