Abby is 8 years old now. She's growing into an amazing young lady and she's still quick as whip. For her birthday she got to have tea with Queen Elsa and it was an amazing moment in her life. After Elsa left Abby comes running up to me and says "Mom! I didn't thin Elsa was real, but I was WRONG!" lol Our family doesn't do Santa or the easter bunny, but that doesn't mean we take all the magic of childhood away.
I'm sorry to say that I haven't been keeping up with writing down everything that was noteworthy since my last post, but I do have a few Abby-isms to share with you guys today. I hope you get as big a laugh out of them as we do. :)
When talking to her dad about animals dying:
"Dad, animals only live until they get shot."

Upon waking Abby up she says "When we get back can I lay on the floor pillow and be a lump? I like being a lump, it makes me feel like myself."

When driving out of our neighborhood, Abby notices the trees marked to be cut down for the city to widen the road. She says, "But it'll destroy the squirrels homes! And the birds! Where will the birds live?! And the bugs that the birds eat and the other critters?? Don't they know what they're ruining?!?!"
Out of the mouths of babes, right?

When she saw the white hairs in her dad's beard and hair:
"Dad, it's like you're old but you're not!"
Her random comment on bacon:
"Bacon shouldn't hurt you. It's made from pigs and pigs are harmless, even when you punch them."
*Disclaimer for all the PETA people in the woodworks- Abby has never seen a pig in person nor has she ever punched one or seen anyone else punch one.
