Quote from EC: “No one who’s old thinks they’re old.”
Monday, April 16, 2012
This one came from my 11 year old son in a conversation I overheard between he and his grandfather. EC asked grandpa why he was skinning most but not all of the skin off a cucumber. Grandpa replied that he liked it that way. EC replied with, “Gee, I never knew old people could be so picky.” To which EC’s grandfather said something along the lines of “I’m not old.” And that led to the quote above.

Quote from EC: “I have seen so many teeth but yours is the best.”
Monday, November 28, 2011
My now ten year old son decided he’d play the part of the “Tooth Pixie” for his sister who lost her first tooth over the weekend. He left the following note:
Dear Leia Hoover,
I love your tooth. In return I give you this $5 dollar bill. I have seen so many teeth but yours is the best. Love the Tooth Pixie.
XP
Apparently the Tooth Pixie signs all official letters with “XP”. Who knew?

Quote from EC: “It’s like a fun house that’s no fun.”
Thursday, January 20, 2011
I forgot to post this earlier. My now 10 year old son made this statement at his Grandma’s house over Christmas. The house is unique in that everyone who enters seems to lose at least one personal belonging (not including one’s mind). EC made the fun house reference after EC’s uncle couldn’t find yet another item of his.

Quote from EC: “Thank you for the olive cobbler.”
Monday, October 4, 2010
EC’s mom made a casserole tonight. The recipe called for olives but she and I don’t like them so she gave EC a can of them to satisfy his need for a salt lick. I guess a casserole with a side of olives equals an olive cobbler. Not sure. Not sure I want to know.

Quote from EC: “He has a brilliant idea!”
Saturday, October 2, 2010
Gordon Gekko or EC? Hard to say.
Sadly, this quote from my son was not directed at me. It was for his friend, who suggested they sell their breakfast burritos, coffee and lemonade at his Grandmother’s garage sale instead of ours. A garage sale to EC is like insider information to Gordon Gekko – an opportunity to make lots of $$$.
