Charity: where are those 4t snow pants?
Leo: I know what happened to them. Last night I was walking in the road and I saw a trash can and I put them in it. Mommy told me to do it so now they are in the trash can.
Snowing in May
Leo: Mommy, it’s Christmas!!!! We have to go find our Christmas tree!!!
Mother’s Day Leo came out of primary with a card for me behind his back. As he ran to give it to me he said, -“welcome to Mother’s Day!!”
Earlier at home he had another card behind his back, as he pulled it out he said, “pwesenting…”
Looking at a dinosaur book
Charity: this is a dimetrodon
Leo: yes a die dinosaur. If someone kills it it will die.
Esther before Mother’s Day asked me very nonchalantly what my favorite flower was while she was coloring one day. I looked at the sunflowers Javier had just given me and responded Sunflowers. She went in coloring without any sign that she heard me. Later that night when Javier was reading her a bedtime story she started sobbing to him that she had made me a Mother’s Day present and chosen the wrong flower. She was devastated that she chose a tulip! Luckily Javier told me the story and the next day out in the yard I took a look at our tulips and proclaimed, these tulips are the most beautiful flowers I’ve ever seen! I think they must be my real favorite flower. Esther’s eyes lit up for a half a second but she quickly composed her face and didn’t say a word. If I hadn’t known I would never have noticed. On Mother’s Day she gave me her beautiful tulip frame with a picture of herself inside and it was so precious I told her my new favorite flower was an Esther Flower ❤️ that made her laugh and smile too. what a sweetheart ❤️❤️❤️
Leo: Phoebe your hair smells terrifying
Leo (looking at clothes on manequins in the store window) Mommy look at the clothes on those bones

Leo: if mommy and daddy die, they won’t be able to put the password on the tv
Esther was explaining her 1st grade math to Leo. Leo: what does five eleventy thousand equals?
Leo pulled some of the pills off our couch and made a little ball. He carries it around the house with him and sleeps with it at night. He calls it his fuzzy and he loves to rub it along his cheeks or lips. Inevitably he loses it since it’s so small and he will panic saying, “I lost my fuzzy! Help me find my fuzzy!” Somehow amazingly he always finds it!
Thank have Leo the job of putting all of the girls dollhouse stuff back in the dollhouse and at first he wanted to organize it, but after realizing it would take longer that way, he said “ok, I’m not gonna orgasize it - organi- orgasize it”
Prince in movie: have a good day ladies
Leo: I wish he said, “ have a good punch”
Leo to Alvin: we love you Alvin, we never even hate you and punch you in the face
When Javier has whiskers I don’t like to kiss him because it scratches my face. One day we saw a man in Costco with a very long beard. Leo said, “look mom! No one would ever kiss him!” Luckily we were far away from him š
Leo: Mommy you said I can live with you as long as I want to. Well I’m never getting married! I’m going to live with you forever!
Charity: well that sounds great to me. Or even you and your wife can life with us forever
Leo: okay that would work. But I am never going to kiss somebody. I will grow a big beard so she won’t want to kiss me!
Leo: mom when you are old I will hate you a ton
Leo calls it bath-tize
Place your confidence in your character, not your results or others opinions.
Leo: I HATE stalking people! It’s the worst time of my life!
Leo: Sammy let’s play Harry Potter. You be Quirrel and I will be the face in the back of your head
