A pile of smiles

Just came across a pile of notes meant to be captured here long ago. Not sure how old some are but they made me smile:

Whenever the box of Nilla Wafers came out sis ran over with a "Please also?" and a hand up in the air.

About a hard rain, "It's like rainfrogs. The raindrops look like a million jumping frogs."

The expressions when learning to chatter:
         Rebolting
         Open Meal
         Veg-uh-bowl
         Point your toe-point
         Ebentually
         Alienance

And brother when he learned to sign a song: I can reach sign language.

After I spilled a glass of milk Brother remarked, "Yeah, that's tough but life keeps going."

Sharing some loose coins with Sis she responded, "No, I need some of the paper kind"

And when he was very little a conversation with Brother:
Mom: are dinosaurs cold or warm blooded?
Brother: let me tell you about those. All dinosaurs are reptiles so that would be cold blooded. I think?
Mom: and dogs?
Brother: I think warm.
Mom: how about parrots?
Brother: I think warm because it's warm when I touch it

The poles

Playing sis's favorite activity this weekend she had Barbie high in air. "Dancing in the air, dancing on top of the world! South Pole, North Pole, East Pole, West Pole!" Brother laughed but had to appreciate she knew her four directions!
