Recalling driving the little toy Jeep around the yard with her cousins, Becky said "Me and Jonathan are the best drivers of all.”
Susie replied, "Katie and I are the best losers of all!”

Becky, after hearing me talk about blasting the rocks for our pool: “Mommy what’s a blast?”
Me: “A blast is an explosion, when you blow something up.”
Becky: “Oh. I thought a blast is when you’re having a fun, fun party.”
**********
Susie: “I can go shopping whenever I want when I grow up.”
Me: “If you have money, that’s right.”
Susie: “Well, my husband will give me money by working.”
**********
Susie to her sister, with more than a little annoyance in her voice: “Why do you have to do everything I do?”
Becky: “Because it’s exciting!”
**********
Jimmy, when he got a rock in his shoe, sat down heavily and took his shoe off, saying, “Oh man!”
**********
Becky: “When I grow up, I want a red convertible…” Then she paused and looked up at me sadly and moaned, “But that means I can’t have any kids!”
**********
Susie, reading a line in a book: “Well, I’ll be a monkey’s uncle.”
Jimmy: “Me be a uncle monkey.” Then he burst out laughing. 🙂
