"I can't wait til you're 60 and I'm 70, because then we'll be closer in age." -Elizabeth

While my big sister and her daughter were cleaning the house last night:

 

Susannah: "Hey, Emma Kate, when I was only 3-years-old I told Grandpa that I wanted to have ten kids and when he asked me why ten I told him because I love windows and I will need a lot of kids to wash them."

Elizabeth: "You're running out of time to have ten kids."

Susannah: "I could have ten! I have 15 years!"

Elizabeth: "Ten kids in 15 years?!"

Susannah: "Triplets!"
Elizabeth: "You'd have to start being nice to boys, Susannah."

Susannah: "I'm nice to them! They just happen to not speak English very well and be over the age of 40."

Elizabeth: "You have to be nice to the little Mormon boys."

Susannah: "I'm not *not* nice to the little Mormon boys."

Elizabeth: "Like Meridith has to sex it up, you have to..."

Susannah: "Not?"

Elizabeth: "Yeah."

Susannah: "I have to WEAR A TURTLENECK AND LEARN TO STITCH."

...

Susannah: "Look, you were sooo teeeeeny!" (pointing at Liz's wedding photo)

Elizabeth: "We were so little, we were 21."
Susannah: "You were Meridith's age!"

Elizabeth: "I had Caroline when I was your age."

Susannah: "Huh. Weird."

Elizabeth: "You better get CRACKALACKIN'!"

 

 

 

Hahahaha, I love us. We came to the conclusion I could have five kids well-spaced before I'm 40 (which is in 2024; weird, huh?)
