Elly Quotes

Elly was watching The Backyardigans on the iPod today, which we don't normally allow on Sundays.  As we tried to convince her to put it down and come watch a Book of Mormon video, this exchanged happened:

Lacy: "Elly, please put down the iPod.  You can come watch the Book of Mormon show."

Elly: "But I want to watch this."

Lacy: "We need to do things on Sunday that help us think about Jesus."

Elly: (With eyes still fixed on The Backyardigans) "I'm thinking about Jesus right now."

Lacy: "Oh?  What about?"

Elly: "About how he loved children...and helped children."

Needless to say, we were caught off guard by her trickery.
