Bonus Post: Sound Bites 17

Me, to Olivia after she wrote a page of zeros: Which one do you think is the best zero?
Olivia: I like the one that looks like a banana.
Me: It does look like a banana, but it does not look like a zero.
Olivia: Well, it is my best one.

Olivia: All my humans keep falling down the hole!

Kaitlyn, running toward the curtains: Hiding!  Daddy, hiding!
Me: She's hiding, you have to start counting.
Bryan, covering his eyes: Oh.  1, 2, 3...
Kaitlyn, covering her eyes: 3, 4.  Found you!
Bryan: ...
Me: You're so bad at this game.

Gretchen: This looks weird to my mouth!

Olivia: Want to play mommy and daddy?
Gretchen: Of course!

Gretchen: Mommy, is Jesus real?
Me: Yes, he's real.
Gretchen: Why does he not do the things I ask him to?
Me: What did you ask him to do?
Gretchen: I asked him to turn this Barbie's dress purple.

Olivia:  I am not going to be 100, I will stop at one of the other numbers.
Gretchen: You will be 100!  Mommy, can we be 100?
Me: If you have enough birthdays, you will be 100.
Olivia: But I am not going to keep getting older, I am just going to get presents.

Kaitlyn: What is daddy?
Me: I don't know, what is daddy?
Kaitlyn: A spoon.

Gretchen: Daddy, you are a tired old man.

    1. Apparently the original comment was actually closer to the following:

      Gretchen: Daddy, do you want to play a game?
      Bryan: Not right now.
      Gretchen: Because you are playing the tired old man game?

    1. For the record, I did NOT read Jacque's comment first.
