Daddy

Rachel - I love Daddy, he is so SOFT.

Her future husband...

Rachel is lying in bed next to me and we are talking. Face to face..all cute and cuddled up.

Rachel - I'm gonna marry a prince
Andrea - I know and he will be great, he will love you, and take care of you so much.
Rachel - And he will wear a black shirt

Ummm...okay

Baskin Robbins

We tool Rachel for an ice cream cone this evening. She loves Mint Chocolate Chip. As she is scarfing it down as fast as possible she notices a round pink clock on the wall....

Rachel - Look at that clock! It's pink, I love that clock
Andrea - Yeah its pretty
Rachel (eyes looking all around the store...) This is a BEAUTIFUL house.

We laughed very hard. I mean it makes total sense. It's pink and surrounded by ice cream, candies and cakes. It is a little girls dream.

Birthdays...

August 8th is Rachel's Grandad's birthday (Matthews dad) so we called him to wish him a happy birthday. Rachel was a little shy as always as at first but once Grandad asked her about her upcoming birthday (the 16th) she was full of conversation. She proceeded to tell him....

My birthday is coming, it is a big one.

If 4 is a big one....what is 34???

The true meaning of colors

In the car Rachel has observantly learned that Green means GO.

Rachel - It's green, that means go daddy
Andrea - laughing...that's right and Red means STOP
Rachel - Red means Stop?
Andrea - Yes, and Yellow means SLOW down...
Rachel - What does Purple mean?
Andrea - I don't know.
Rachel - Hmmm, Purple means, Up a tree.
Matthew - What??
