My Christmas Surprise

Me: Ellyyyy! Have you seen that Piki face anywhere?

Elly: It's in there, Ma.
Me: No, it's not. What are you sitting on?

Me: Marvin's body arrived and I was going to surprise you with your new brother.
Elly: Oh NO!

Elly: Let me get that. So sorry..

Marvin: Thank you. I'll feel much better with a face, you know.

Elly: Ummm, you might want to try that wig over there. 'Cuz I know it's not mine.

Elly: Much much better! Oh you're cute! Mom, does he have to be my brother?

Elly Gets a new Wardrobe

Mama has so much love for me that she makes all my clothes. Trouble is, she's rather slow about it.

                                         What are we doin', Ma?

                                         Air Mail? I don't get mail, do I?

                                         No! For ME?!?!?!!!!!!!!!

                                         How did alexisbears know?

                                         All this for ME?!

                                         I can go with you to the Christmas party in this pretty one!

                                         I feel like a belle.

                                         Ohhh, so pretty!

Thank you Ma, thank you alexisbears. I can't wait to go climb trees now!

Berry Patch

**awed by this lovely lady gracing my neighborhood**

Elly: Hi, I'm Elly and you're a beautiful lady! MindifIsithere and what'syourname?
Lelaria: Thank you. I'm Lelaria, and I was enjoying a bit of peace and quiet...*hinthint*

Elly: I'll get you some berries!

Elly: mmmm nom nom nom so nummy.

After Elly disappears for awhile (the berries never arrived), Lelaria hears a tiny voice singing pure notes.

Lelaria: Your music is lovely, but I can see where the berries went.
Elly: Thank you. I just, well, they were so tasty, and then I got full, and then I saw this lovely marble rock, and the sun was shining just so, I just had to sing to it. I'm glad you liked my song, though. Sorry about the berries.
Lelaria: Quite alright; may I request one thing from you though?
Elly: Certainly 

Lelaria: If you would PLEASE keep your berry-juice stained self from my person and release my toe at once!

Elly Gets a New Faceplate

More mail for me?

TOYS!!!

Gimme!

Me: Geez Elly, nobody would ever accuse you of being grabby!

Whatisitwhatisitwhatisit?

Elly: Where's his body?

Me: I thought it'd be another faceplate for you.

Elly: You don't love me? What's wrong with me?

Me: Oh no, Elly, no. I just thought you'd like another expression besides being so happy all the time.

You could tell more stories.

Me: What do you think?

Elly: I think I'm sad. I've never been sad before.

Take it off, Mama, take it off. I don't wanna be sad. Put me back on, Pleeeease?!

It's all fun and games....

One day at the jewelry store Elly found what she truly believes to be a glass pumpkin full of candy! No matter what I told her, she was determined to get as much as her greedy little hands could get. Instead she got a good scare (and a bump on her noggin).

Wishing Well

                                         Me: Pretty, isn't it?
                                         Elly: Ooooh, what is it for?

                                         Me: Sometimes people toss in coins and make wishes.
                                         Elly: What do they wish for?
                                         Me: Usually money or love. Where are you going?

                                         Elly: Nowhere

                                         Me: That's not nowhere! What do you think you're doing?
                                         Elly: Investigating! What else?

                                         Me: Find anything?

                                         Me: I see you, you know.
                                         Elly: *giggles*

                                         Me: EEEEEK! What do you think you're doing!?!

                                         Elly: It's fine, Ma, I said I was exploring, didn't I?

Elly: Tadaaaaaaaaa!

Me: Geez, you worry me sometimes!

Elly: Why do you worry so? You know we puki's have excellent balance.
