Elsie: No, Mama. Elsie makes her poopers in the potty chair.
Mama: Oh you do, do you? I think I smell something in your pants...
Elsie: Mama has stinky pants!
Mama: No, I don't think it's me who has stinky pants. Who else could it be?
Elsie: Grandma RJ!
Mama: No, it's not Grandma RJ. Who else could it be?
Elsie: Grandma Dorothy!
Mama: No, it's not Grandma Dorothy. Who else could it be?
Elsie: Daddy!
Mama: No, I don't think it's Daddy. Who else could it be?
Elsie: Maaaaaybe Elsie?

Daddy: Elsie, I think we should get you a big hamster wheel and hook it up to a generator.
Elsie (eyes huge): Yes! Elsie would like that very much. Daddy go get Mamster Wheel right now?

Elsie: Mama, you want to look in Elsie's bottom?
Mama: Look in your bottom? What would I find in your bottom?
Elsie: Elsie's tail!
Mama: Your tail? What kind of tail is it? A kitty tail?
Elsie (grabbing my braid and shaking it): No, Mama, it's a Mama tail in Elsie's bottom!
Elsie: Daddy, I want to be just like you!
Elsie (While being tucked into bed): Mama, Elsie wake up in two minutes, okay?
Mama: Well, it's night time, so I think we better sleep longer than two minutes. We need to rest our minds and rest our bodies so that we will be ready to play again tomorrow.
Elsie: Okay. Elsie go to sleep to rest. Elsie be ready in two minutes!

Daddy: Maybe we should go lay down in your bed and take a rest?
Elsie (as she sprints out of the room): No! Elsie doesn't need to rest!

Elsie: Elsie's baby had a pooper!
Mama: Oh, my! Should we change her pants?
Elsie: No, her pants are clean!
Mama: Hmm...if her pants are clean, where did she make her pooper? In the potty?
Elsie: No! On Elsie's foot. See baby's pooper?
(No, it wasn't a "baby pooper"....it was a fur ball Elsie had stepped in. Lovely.)

Daddy (upon "finding" Elsie "hiding" under the yoga mat): Elsie! There you are! What are you doing in there?
Elsie: Daddy, Elsie drinking tea in here.
