Whenever we part with someone, Zoe says her goodbyes, and after the door is closed or they walk away, she says, “Well, I guess so!”
When we’re chatting in the elevator and someone exits on his or her floor, it’s, “Well! I guess so!” After saying goodbye to her Gigi and the car door closes, “Well, I guess so!”
I have no idea where it came from or who might have said it, but it seems to have made an impression on her. Apparently this is what one says when someone leaves.
In other cute things Zoe says news, you haven’t lived until you’ve heard her say “quinoa,” as in, “I spilled it quinoa, Mama.” and “I sweep it up quinoa, Mama.” She says it correctly – it’s just so cute.
(If you have returned looking for Zoe’s submitted contest photos, here they are.)






She is SO cute, get lots of video of all this! But what does quinoa mean?
Okay, I just looked at the pictures you submitted and, MY GOSH, she is just STUNNING!!! That first one looks like someone painted her out of what they imagine perfection to look like… did that make sense?
Thank you! That totally makes sense to me.
We are so in love, of course. Quinoa is a really tasty and nutritious seed that I’ve started using in place of rice. I think you would like it! I added a link there if you want to read more about it.
