Ellaquism

Ella comes up with so many of her own sayings that we now call them Ellaquisms. She has a new one almost daily. I think I should start following her around with a notebook, so I can write them all down. I don't know how many times we have said if she wasn't so funny and cute, she would totally be strung up by now! So here is her latest:

This morning I was standing in the kitchen and heard the electric pencil sharpener on the other side of the house running. and running. and running. Like five minutes later it was still running, so I called back and said, "It doesn't take that long to sharpen a pencil." To which Ella replied, "Yes it does," because she would argue with anyone about ANYTHING. I said something like you must not be holding it in there the right way, because it does not take that long. She yelled back, "IT'S NOT PENCIL ENOUGH YET!"

The defense rests. If she doesn't become a lawyer, she will have missed a perfect opportunity.
