Beckett and some kids from across the street are playing. A little roly-poly bug walks by. I tell one kid and then Beckett comes up.
Beckett: "What's that?"
Me: "A roly-poly bug."
Beckett: "That's horrible." And then walks away.

Fact Stating
Paige, upon heading out the door to school this morning, stops in front of a mirror and says in a very matter-of-fact voice: "I am ridiculously cute today."

We should talk to our kids more
Mom: "Hey darling, I just found out today is Stake Conference (when the local congregations meet together instead of a regular Sunday service), so today we'll go to church in a different building."
Paige (excited): "Is that at the Jewish church?"
Paige (excited): "Is that at the Jewish church?"
Out of the mouth of babes
Paige and Beckett are playing in the other room and I hear:
Beckett (in a very loud yelling voice to Paige):"HEY! NO FAIR!!!"
Paige (in a SUPER monotone voice to Beckett):"Life's not fair."
Beckett (in a very loud yelling voice to Paige):"HEY! NO FAIR!!!"
Paige (in a SUPER monotone voice to Beckett):"Life's not fair."
