Elly Quotes

(During Family Home Evening Lacy did a lesson about the Holy Ghost, and then she and I bore our testimonies about it.  Then we asked Elly if she wanted to share her feelings about it.)


Brandon:  When I feel the Holy Ghost, I feel happy and full of love.

Elly: And when I feel the Holy Ghost in my heart, I feel like hugging someone...or playing.

The Entertainer

Miles loves Elly.  She can totally entertain him and make him laugh.  Here's a little snippet from my phone camera (so the quality is poor).  You'll probable have to turn up your speakers to hear.

My favorite part is that at the end he burps and she goes, "Oh, broth" (like brother, but shorter).  She has started calling him "broth" and "brothee".

Elly Skipping

Elly has been practicing her skipping.  She's getting pretty good.

Elly Quotes

Brandon:  Elly, what's the Internet?

Elly:  It's on the computer when you type something.

Brandon:  That's right.  Is it anything else?

Elly:  Yeah.  We can also watch movies on the Internet.

Brandon:  That's right, like on Netflix.

Elly:  Netflix?

Brandon:  It's on the computer or the TiVo with the red menu screens, and we can pick movies to watch.

Elly:  Oh, you mean Neck-flix.  Yeah.

Elly Quotes

Elly (singing a song she was making up on the spot):  And if you are afraid, don't tell me, tell Heavenly Father.

(Geez, I hope that's not the idea she's formed from us trying to teach her to pray if she's scared.  We say, "If you're afraid, you can pray to Heavenly Father."  She apparently hears, "Look, kid.  Don't bother us with your problems.")

Elly Quotes

(Elly was singing about Disneyland in the car today, so we decided to ask her about it.)


Lacy:  Elly, what's Disneyland?

Elly:  It's a big building where all the princesses live.

Watching TV

Miles already loves watching TV.  Uh-oh.  Here's a little shot of the two of them watching together.
