don't forget. (sk-isms)

i keep an sk-ism post in my draft box so that i can come and add to it from time to time and post them when i think they've gotten too long.  i don't want to forget some of the things she says! 

there are some things i do want to forget. but when these recent tantrums are all said and done then even those are laughable at the end of the day (kinda).  for example, while throwing a fit about who knows what: "no!! i don't want to be nice!!! i want to be ugwee (ugly) and wude (rude) and i just want to cry!! i will not calm down!  i want to cry!" 

 now that you've probably said a quick little prayer for me (and i do appreciate that, thank you) here are some of sk's best:

"i feel weird in blue jeans."

on wearing the same UGA dress as her sister:  "oh look!  baby hayes has on the same dress as me.  we are matching!!!  it's a proud, proud day."

"maybe i got it from one of the elephants on dumbo. yep, maybe that's it!" (when i asked her where she got "it's a proud proud day" from. and she is exactly right! i knew she must have heard it somewhere- she didn't really use it incorrectly either!)

"i think i need to have a tea party because i have a cough." (along with a dramatic and fake cough).

"the princess does not want to sing right now." (referring to herself of course).

"i am NOT being ugly! this is ridiculous!!"  (her reply when i told her to stop acting ugly.)

"i think we need to have a tea party.  that will help you feel all better!!"  (after i got on to her.)

"well."  (how she begins most all of her answers.  for example, "sarah kate, what are you doing?" "well, i'm about to have a tea party.")

"no, no, no, PAPA is my bestie." (when trey asked her if mimi was her bestie.) 

while dressed as sleeping beauty, she comes over to hayes and says, "awwww, look at the little tiny sleeping beauty!  she's so cute, i love her!" (in a little tiny voice - dramatic much?)


"you put him in the wrong direction!!! that's the wrong direction!!!" -on where i tucked dumbo into bed.  apparently he likes to sleep on her right side, not her left.


"she is little aurora" - when the doctor asked who her baby sister was. aurora is sleeping beauty and apparently sk is big aurora and hayes is little aurora.


 "i want to be cinderella when i grow up." when i asked what she wanted to be when she grows up. lovely.


 "daddy, get the teacup off of your ear! what is wrong with you??!!!" (when trey hung his teacup from his ear at a tea party during dinner one night. i live with some interesting people.)


"dumbo, no sir, that is MY tea not your tea!" (what she told dumbo after she stuck his trunk in her teacup & had him "drink" her tea).


"well, elephants are not able to say please and thank you so he can't have any tea." (when i told her to get dumbo his own teacup after the incident above).

"oh dumbo, i'm so sorry, i love you!!  i don't want you to be in trouble!" (after she scolded dumbo for drinking her tea.)


"but God is not in my heart.  my heart is too tiny." (when i told her that we needed to say our prayers which sometimes she doesn't want to do.  i told her that God was in her heart and he knew what she was thankful for anyway.  ha!  of course she took it literally - bet she thinks i'm nuts to say a person could fit in her little tiny heart.)


i called santa the other day while she was being extra ugly and difficult.  i pretended to have a full blown convo with the man in red.  he was NOT happy to hear the things he heard and he is not sure if sk deserves a visit this christmas.  he will have to wait and see how she behaves.  so anyway, later in the day sk got her princess pretend phone and said to me, "i'm calling your mama!  i'm gonna call her, i'm going to call mosemary, and i'm gonna tell her how ugly you have been". then she began dialing!  touche' sk. touche'. (and yes, she says my mom's name with an "m" instead of an "r". that's not a typo.)


there are definitely moments when i'd like to freeze time.  sometimes trey and i think of something that happened exactly one year ago and we can never believe that a whole year has passed by!  one year ago (on the 17th - my mom's bday!) we were in greenville for ashley's brother's wedding (bryson and amy).  i reminded trey of that and he about died!  feel like we were just there.
and yet, look at how little she looked....
