Kailei-ism's

"You've never even played basketball Mom. It's one of your many faults."

************

Me: "Be careful please. You almost hit me in the face while you were twirling around."
Kailei: "The important thing is I didn't. Let's move on and live in the moment."

************

Picked up Kailei to take her to dance and first thing she said was "How art thou?"

************

Me: Are those your socks on the floor?
Kailei: Let's not play the blame game Mother.

************

Kailei to Zeb...
"You're online gaming name should be King GreyStreak." (a slam at his real hair)

************

Playing a video game...
Me: "I don't understand this game."
Kailei: "Of course you don't. You're not an online gamer. You're an online worker Mom."

************

"If you don't like stuffed animals, you're dead to me."

************

Playing a game in the car with Kailei where Zeb and I have to guess who knows her better by answering questions.
K: "What is my favorite flower? And keep in mind I don't know that many flowers."
----
After I lost the 800 point question...

"You really do need to get to know me better Mom."

New Years Eve

Got invited to spend New Year's Eve with friends. Unfortunately Keara was sick so she couldn't join us but Zeb, Kailei and myself headed over to the Merwin-Olk's where we enjoyed a wonderful night of food, friendship and fun. We all managed to stay up until midnight and watch the ball drop. And then we crashed.

2014 Highlights

Kailei: "My favorite thing would probably be going to Cape Cod and seeing my cousins."

Keara: "I don't know. I don't think about.", says the teenager.

Zeb: "Having the boys here from Texas, watching Kailei in her dance competitions and seeing the artwork that Keara produces. 

Chris: "Having Kevin's family here for Christmas, the scrapbook mom made me, the whole family doing the ice bucket challenge and watching the girls in their activities."
