Olivia: Oh, how delightful!
Gretchen: Mom, I found something very amazing!
Olivia: Where are you going, Gretchen?
Gretchen: Um, to buy some gas station.
Bryan, to Olivia: You can have bread or vegetables. Which one would you like?
Olivia: Well that is a dumb question.
Gretchen: Daddy goes to work and you go to the store!
Me: What are you girls playing?
Gretchen: Just boi boi.
Me: What's boi boi?
Gretchen: Boys come and take us to their house.
Me: And then what?
Gretchen: I look out my window and in my bed... I say, "what are they doing," Olivia says, "I don't know"...
Gretchen: What is this?
Me: That's beer.
Gretchen: To get Daddy more beard?
Bryan: Yes, that's my beard juice. Whenever I need more beard, I just drink beer.
Gretchen: How does the fly and Tuesday song go?
Me: The fly and Tuesday song? I'm not sure I know that one.
Olivia: *to the tune of "Addams Family"* There's Friday and there's Tuesday...
Olivia: Can I pick first?
Me: Yes. You are the picker firster at lunch.
Gretchen: And I am the picker seconder!
Gretchen, standing right next to the dishwasher during its heated dry cycle: I am standing next to here to keep my ear warm.
Me: Gretchen, do you need help?
Gretchen: No, I was just panicking.
This conversation came after we visited two open houses for preschool. One school had cookies prominently displayed and available for snacking.
Me: What did you think of the schools?
Olivia: They were good, but I wanted to look around more in the other school for cookies.
Me: Yeah, we did not try very hard to find cookies in the second school. Which one did you like better?
Olivia: I like schools with cookies.
And two old quotes that I found jotted down when cleaning the car--
Olivia: We've been here for miles.
Olivia: My belly is not feeling good. How about I watch cartoons while I wait for it to feel better?
