Some Healthy Self-esteem

At bedtime:
Me: Thalia, I think you're wonderful.
Thali: Yes, I am beautiful.
Me: Haha! I said wonderful, not beautiful! But you're right. You're both wonderful and beautiful!
Thalia: Yes, I am wonderful and beautiful...

The Y?

Me: I would love to visit Hawaii. It's a beautiful paradise!
Thalia: The Y?
Me: The Y?
Sophia: No, Thalia. Hawaii. It's a beautiful country in the United States!
Thalia: The Y?...

Big Bug Bite

Me: I have a big bug bite on my back that itches terribly! Maybe it's a spider bite.
Thalia: Or a bunny bite.
Me: Maybe.

Toast with Peanut Butter

Me: Here's your toast with peanut butter. I cut it up for you. Just take one piece at a time. If you finish it, you can eat another piece. OK?
Thalia: Is there a sign that says I can't  take two?
Me: Uhh, no.
Thalia: OK.

Eating Carrots Helps You To See In The Dark

Laura: Eating carrots helps you to see in the dark!
Thalia: What?
Laura: Eating carrots helps you to see in the dark!
Thalia: What?
Me: Which vegetable helps with hearing?...

The Owl

My brother loaned us their VTech Owl baby cam so we could check in with our napping kids. Unfortunately, Thalia freaked out pretty badly when Laura accessed the intercom feature to tell her to stay in bed. Freaked out! She thinks it's alive and now she has since been scared to be in the same room with it. I can't say I blame her. It has now been sitting unused on my lampstand next to my bed, facing the wall, unplugged...

No Applesauce

Laura: Eat your applesauce.
Thalia: No. I'll just eat naughty food at church...
