In reference to her zhu-zhu pet (for those that don't know, a battery operated gerbil that has accessories)
Eden: zooom zooom zooooooooooooM. zoooooo-oooooo-ooooo-UM! Do you know what he just said, Daddy?
Christian: Um, no. You'll have to translate for me. I don't understand him.
Eden: Well, that's because he speaks zoom-zoom because I named him zoom-zoom.
Christian: ohhh, I see.
Eden: He said "Yes!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Referring to her whistle...
Eden: Look, I know you think it looks small, but it's mighty!

After being sent to her room as punishment for taking a toy away from her sister...
"My family doesn't like me and I don't like them! Not even a little bit! Mommy doesn't like me. Daddy doesn't like me. Daisy doesn't like me. Not even Grandy and Henry like me! I'm maaaaaad!"
DISCLAIMER: We had a theraputic counseling session after her timeout and explained that even if she's in trouble or she's made a poor choice (ie: taking a toy away from her sister and then throwing a tantrum in the floor because I made her give it back), we ALWAYS love her and NOTHING will change that!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Eden: Hey Mama, Daddy took away my red ball, so I found this green one!
Me: hmm...Ok, I'll take that. Thank you.
