Lily quotes

When Lily sees a potential park playmate, she runs up and asks to be friends, then plays long and hard with her new found and never to be seen again pal. After playing happily with a girl for a while she ran back to chat with Luke.

Lily: See that girl? She's my friend. I can't understand anything she's saying, but we're playing together.
Luke: I think she's speaking Spanish.
Lily: No, I'm pretty sure she's French. Or maybe Hawaiian.

During the Superbowl, Lily played upstairs with the teenage daughter of the house. Apparently, she spied American girl dolls up in the closet. Afterward, she said, "That girl had American dolls, and she said she was too old for them and was just going to give them to Goodwill. (pause) Maybe I should just force her to give them to me."

And today I heard her say, "Jonathan, could you just come here for a minute so I can put you in headlock? For just a minute. Come here."
