- "You just don't understand me!! No one understands me!! I just wish you could go inside my head and read everything that is written there!! [to herself] That would actually be a really LONG read."
- "Mom, will you just let me drive my own life!!!??"
- "Mom, you really need a lesson on playing, and you're about to get one!!" (in response to my asking for about the third time, 'What on earth do you even do with THIS (random piece of junk)?')
I cannot believe I escaped the conversation without a "Why do you people always have to try to RULE me??!!" which is another favourite persecuted Emma quote, but she left that one out today.
Sophie is neither bothered about being understood nor is she attached to bits of rubbish like Emma. She spent the morning frolicking about the house and garden keeping herself thoroughly entertained. At one point, she came into my room, flopped on the bed and heaved a great sigh and said, "Oh, Emma! Mom DOES understand you!"

The last quote from Emma is my favorite. It's going to be soooooo fun in about 6 years. :) Enjoy it now!
