retro-rachael

So, I was going through some of my old stuff last night in effort to find something, and I came across my old baby book. So, I was reading through it and feeling all reminiscive and everything, and thought I'd further embarrass myself by posting some funny stuff from it. :) oh yeah, i was born in '82, so that'll help you figure out how old i am for different quotes.

* December 20th, 1988
"Rachael is learning much at school these days, some of which must be from her gutter-immersion classes. Yesterday, returning home, she noticed a package on the front porch and told me about it. When I told her I hadn't noticed it on my way in she said "Yes, well, I came up the stairs and I saw this package and I said 'What the hell is this? I'd better tell Daddy.' She continued without batting an eyelash."

* ...she was drinking punch beside Melanie and stated "Jesus won't like this". When asked why, she said "Well, he's in my heart and he must be getting wet!" (Feb. 1987)

* She enjoyed a good coup when one night, Dad (grandpa) picked up Alicia's black shoes from the hall and asked whose they were. Alicia said jokngly "No they're Rachael's". So, a minute later when Rachael was supposed to be getting hers on, and Grandpa found them for her, she said "No, those are Alicia's!"

* The other day, they were to say a prayer request in their Sunday school class. Rachael prayed--and then as she looked at the art on her Sunday School sheet, and said "and I pray that Jesus looks better than this in heaven." Anne Siegrist thought this immensely funny. (June 1988).

* Rachael's quotes of the week: (Jan. 5/1990): (on watching previews before the feature movie began) "I guess they show those things so that the other actors can get ready for the movie".

* "She comes home, marches into the kitchen, pulls the chair to the counter and starts helping herself to food--or, if none is available, demands "I need someping-a-eat!" (Dec.84)

Ok, so, that's all of the Rachael's book stuff for now. I was a genius-baby, huh? Totally witty. heh heh heh. Apparently, in terms of my "favourite" family members, my favorite aunt and uncle especially, haven't really changed since I was teeny weeny. Next time I'll post some retro pictures. Our scanner thingy isn't working right now so I can't for this one. Happy monday, everyone, as much as monday can be happy.
