Moving to PEI

So, Brenley has been telling us recently that she's going to go to PEI for school after she graduates.
Tonight, after being sent to her room for the night for throwing something at her brother, she was more than a little perturbed.

After a lengthy conversation with her father, she asks:

"When can I move out of this house? Mom says that when I'm 17 I can move to PEI."

"Oh yeah... are you going to go to Holland College or the Agriculture College over there?"

"I dunno, but Katherine [her friend] says there's a lot of break-ins over there."

Philosophy on Life & Religion 101

professor: Brenley Gillis, 4 1/2 year old
student: Kyle Gillis, 39 yr old father, husband, etc

While in the classroom (aka yard, on the swings) on a sunny holiday Monday, Brenley says to Kyle:

You know, Dadaidh, we're here, but we're not really here. We're all really in God's big belly.
And, even though, you know, when you're talking to me and pushing me on the swing, it's not really you that's talkin' to me. It's really somebody else saying the words for you.
It's not really you. But I hear you.

Okey dokey.
I don't think I wanna sign up for her 2nd year course.... might be a bit over my head.

It's been almost a month...

.. of nothing too noteworthy and then there's today! Holy frig. I swear that these gems were from today only. Actually they all came in about a 4 hour period:

She went to Helly's house for the afternoon to "play" with Helly & Maire from Ireland. Maire has her harp with her, so I asked Brenley what she thought of the harp, (pretty annoyed):
 "Um, I saw one of those before, you know!"
"Oh, really? Where?"
"At the Barra MacNeil's concert."
"Oh yeah! So did you tell Maire & Helly that?"
"No, I couldn't remember the name of it."
 "Well, what is it called?"
"A Barra MacNeil's play set!"


While downstairs with Dadaidh:
"Um, Dadaidh, what are we doing after this sleep?"
"I dunno"
"Well what about after that sleep?"
"You're going to Charlene's"
"Is that your birthday?"
"Yeah, I guess it is"
"Are you working that day?"
"Yeah, why?"
"Well, you better not come home before all the party people come here!"


After her bath, waiting for the hockey game to come on, she looked at Kyle on the couch and says with her hands on her hips & her eyes doing their thing:

Um, helll-oooooo?!?! I'm thirsty, you know! I only asked for a drink about 2 hours ago!

Thought I'd post some videos...

Brenley, of course, lives to be like Hannah Montana. However, she can't be serious when she's singing, just like her father!



Here's her tribute to Gordie Sampson's "We are Young & So is the Night":


and here's one of her dancing when she was only young:


Hope you like them!
