Manny: I realized I let my childhood slip away. Look at Luke here, making one big straw out of three. Never change Luke, I really thought it was too late for me. But watching all you acting like children, it hit me — I’ve got plenty of time left to be a kid.

Jay - Gloria

When I go, I want you to know it’s okay if you marry someone else.

I know.

Because I want you to be happy.

I’ll be happy.

You’re driving me crazy on purpose, right?

Jay, I’m not going to marry anyone else.

That’s what you say now, but no one know what the future holds. So I want you to have this.

Look at this, an empty coffee can. Do you know what men used to buy me?

When I go, toss me in the fire, sweep my ashes, stick’em in that. Cause I don’t care if it’s in the wall or in the ground, just as long as I end up with you.

J: It’s perfect. Jay Pritchett sitting on the mantel in the old coffee can. That will drive the putz crazy. And I like that. Hhhhhhh!

Claire担心 多动症会影响他的正常成长。

Claire - Phil

What an amazing kid! I can’t believe I ever worried about him out in the world. That’s what I do, though, isn’t it? I worry. I think about a little, tiny thing and then I obsess on it, until, suddenly, it’s the only thing I can think about. God, please don’t let me screw up my son.

You know why else she’s gonna be okay? Because somewhere out there is a worried little girl who’s making lists and labeling bins, and he’s gonna find her.

Mothers’ day

The perfect mom. A tablespoon of love, one cup of warmth, add one heart, softened. serves one boy. 175 pounds of tenderness.
