“OK. I love you. Bye-bye.”
– Shannon, amid other kissy noises, while ending a phone conversation

“Who were you talking to?”
– Emily, truly curious

“Daddy! Who else would I be saying ‘I love you’ to on the phone like that?”
– Shannon, surprised that Emily had to ask

“Grandma, Grandpa, Gram-Gram, Auntie Jill…”
– Emily, the essence of innocence
