Quotables


The children are loving Mozart: The Wonder Boy -- part of our Mozart and Monet summer. An unforeseen benefit has been their willingness to quote the young maestro's words. The girls love that out of love for his father, little Wolfgang said, "Next to God, Papa."

Last night, as my four year old was having a hard time falling asleep, she asked for some orange juice. Sucker that I am, I gave in to this request. When I returned with the aforementioned, after-teeth-have-been-brushed-beverage, she looked up at me and quipped, "Next to God, Mama." Best narration I ever did hear!
