"Can you please stop making banana bread, so Mommy can make gingerbread?" Rachel asked Drew last night. "'Cause you're getting in the way."

Drew is leaving for a conference in Washington DC that lasts from this coming Sunday to the following Wednesday. We already have two playdates lined up for Sunday, one with Rachel's friend Tessa and another with Sarah and Noah.
"Know how many things I'm gonna give Tessa when she comes over?" Rachel asked me tonight. "She gave me one thing, but I'll give her four! I'm going to rummage around my closet."

"I love the flowers!" Rachel remarked tonight. She was talking about the bouquet of daisies and purple carnations that our friend Anne brought over when we cooked her dinner two weeks ago before she took a leave of absence from the Oregonian. "What a good combination! White and pink. Is that a good combination?"

Rachel the future CEO of a Fortune 500 company: "When Tessa and Amanda and Casey and Tasani go to kindergarten, I'm gonna be in charge of the table. I'm gonna be the boss, I'm gonna tell everyone what to do. I'm gonna be 4!"
