Bela: "Mom, have you ever noticed how much we are like trees? Their trunks are like our legs, strong to stand on.. Their branches are like our arms. Their leaves are like our hair." Me: "Yeah, you are right Bela." Bela: "And no one taught me that in school, I came up with it all by myself."

"Was that based on a true story?".. Spoken after we had just watched Space Buddies, a movie about 6 talking dogs in space. Marcelo and I could not stop laughing!

Tonight as I was relaying how I have been craving and eating way too many sundried tomatoes lately.. Bela said, "Mom, don't worry, you're just going through a growth spurt for grown ups!"

Yesterday Bela has 150 Math Addition and Subtraction problems for homework. She worked on them for an hour. After she was all finished, she was in her room probably decompressing (I know I would be). I noticed a sheet of paper on the table full of tick marks front and back.

I took it into her room, held it up.. and said "So, is this the magic behind the Math?".. just teasing her. And she replied, plain as day.. "Yeah, some of my friends use their minds, but this is easier!"

"Mom, I like the word 'growing' but not the word pains." - In the car while driving to piano lessons, complaining of growing pains in her legs.

"You get to see all the interesting things Mommy." - Spoken in the car driving to Piano Lessons in the dark, and I just seen a rabbit hop in front of my car, and I screamed and swerved to avoid hitting it.
