DELETED SCENE from Jessica's "Daily Affirmation"


This scene - which took place mere moments after Jessica climbed down off the bathroom counter - was deleted for a reason: the visuals aren't very good, and it's hard to hear much of what Jess says. But her exclamation about her imagination is funny (to me at least.) - December 2001 Here's the original: www.youtube.com

Vanessa and her "blah blah"


Vanessa asks mom if she can do her "blah blah" - which consisted of just saying "blah blah blah blah" as she rocked back and forth, which she found greatly amusing. (April 2003) Note that at this time Vanessa was incapable of making the "k" sound, instead making a "t" sound - so you may notice she says "Tuz" at the end instead of "Cuz."
