McCanless quotes for the day…

1-I was video interviewing McCanless…

Me: McCanless who do you love?

McCanless: I love Eliza, Stella, Anne Dubose, Camer…wait! Before you love others, you must first love yourself. I love myself.

2-Confession to her Daddy…

McCanless: Tell mom that I tee-tee’d in Mary Clare’s potty tonight. I wanted her to be happy and proud of Mary Care.

To explain…We bought Mary Clare a potty because she has shown some interest in the big potty and has been telling us when her diaper needs changing. After putting the potty together, inserting batteries (yes, it makes music when pottied upon) and inserting the roll of TP on its holder, Mary Clare showed more interest in unrolling the toilet paper all over the house than actually going potty. We realized that she knows exactly what to do with the toilet paper, however. She pretended to “wipe” after sitting on her new potty, but then she immediately blew her nose with the same “wad.” Later on, I was amazed when McCanless ever so convincingly told me that MC pottied just before bath time. (They had been dancing around the house naked.) I swear, I totally believed her. I really did! (Note to self: McCanless is a fabulous liar.) Later on, her confession to Daddy proved that we may have a longer potty training road ahead of us than originally thought.

3- McCanless: Mom, do you know how this pink boa was made?

I start to ponder how in the world to answer this question, and as I began…she said, “They had to kill flamingos.”
