FAMILY QUOTABLES

On Thanksgiving:

TSCGirl: Uncle Mike*, you haven't been over to the house to meet our new cat, Jules yet.

Uncle Mike: You know the problem with cats?

TSC: What?

UM: There just aren't enough recipes.

and then I punched his arm. [And people wonder where I get my sarcasm.]

Three days before Christmas my four-year-old niece was refusing to go to bed and my brother used the classic Santa threat:

Brother: You better be a good girl and stay in bed, Christmas is coming and Santa can see you!

Niece: All the way from the mall?!

Aaah, and another generation takes over.
