Book Project

Starting today I am going to write a book for saya for all her smart alec quotes. Here's some beginners:

#1:
Chhay (older cousin): Hey Saya wanna see my missing tooth? (shows Saya missing tooth).
Saya: You eat too much candy. The dentist had to pull it out. You need to brush your teeth.

#2:
(Saya is sick and Daddy pours her some medicine into a cup. Saya "chugs" the cup and walks away.)
Saya: Oh the medicine's so yummy...I love medicine.
Daddy: Saya, why is there more stuff in here than the medicine I poured in for you? Wait a minute come back here! Saya drink your medicine!

#3:
Saya: Chhay where were you?
Chhay: I went to see my friends get married.
Saya: Well, when I marry my boyfriend you can't come.

#4. (at the mall with Auntie Chara)
Mall salesperson: Is this your mommy?
Saya: No she's not my mommy. She's not my family.
(Auntie Chara buries her face in her hands.)

#5. (Auntie Leah brings Saya to her first day of school. They are walking 2 blocks home and Saya is upset that Ming Leah makes her walk the entire time. )
Saya: Ming Leah you're a jerk. I don't love you anymore.

#6.
Saya: Daddy, you know what mommy said to me?
Hak: Yes?
Saya: She said you're a bitch, Daddy. That's right.

#7 (Vy and Saya is walking through the front gate. Vy proceeds to open the gate but notices that she tried to open the wrong end of the gate.)
Saya: (starts giggling softly) Mommy, you're funny. You went to the wrong side of the gate. Haha you're so funny.

#8.
Saya: Daddy, I have a question for you.
Hak: Yes, Saya what do you want to ask?
Saya: How do you mem (Khmer for "nurse") yourself?
