Ellie says

I should start a weekly post of my favorite Ellie sayings. My current favorite is her stopping Markus mid-song by holding up her hand and announcing, "Wait! Let me get the tambourine!" But that's a couple of weeks old now. Our drive to the 'Burg on Tuesday provided this week's sample. We didn't bring her CDs with us and the iPod wasn't working in the car (too many radio stations to play the iTrip), and she was dismayed. Finally, she surrendered to her fate and began singing herself. Ellie has never done this before, so it was extra cute! We did our best not to interrupt or distract her, but she eventually faded out and announced, "It's turned off!" Guess that iPod influence has extended further than we thought.
