Quote #1: 
WE ARE GROWING 
by Laurie Keller

But growing is HARD WORK. In fact  PING! Hey, just grew!

Quote #2: 
LEO THE LATE BLOOMER 
by Robert Kraus and Jose Aruego

"Patience," said Leo's mother. "A watched bloomer doesn't bloom."

    1. You're right! I love this one. It really does read just like a Mo Willems' Elephant & Piggie book. The author is still up for grabs... :)
