"Why do you have to go to work?" "So we can have money." "Why do we need money?" "So we can buy food; otherwise we won't have anything to eat." (smiling like she's just solved a big problem) "But we've already got food downstairs!" "Yes, but sometime that will be all gone and we'll need to buy more." (after thinking for about 5 seconds) "Can't you just sneek into the store?" |

This conversation took place between mommy and Rachel first thing in the morning: "Rachel is your nose stuffy?" "yes" "Does your throat hurt?" "a little" "Would you like mommy to go downstairs and get you some juice?" "Yes" (pause) "and a get-well card too" |

This is the day before Rachel's 5th Birthday. The first words out of her mouth upon waking up were: "Tomorrow's my birthday; I'm going to be five years old, and I don't even know how to wipe my own butt yet!!"

Rachel saw my Old Spice deodorant on the counter of the bathroom sink and had the following conversation with Camille: "Why does daddy wear deodorant?" "Because when you get to be a little older you can start to stink a little as the day goes on" "It's because he's closer to death, isn't it?"

Dinner table conversation: Reagan: "I wanted to tell you about my friend Ryland" Me: "Do you mean Ryan?" Reagan: "No, Ryland" Me: "Ryland is not a name. There's nobody named Ryland" Camille: "You don't know that! These days everybody uses odd names" Rachel: "Yeah, like what would you think if they named you Boaz!"

Right after a phone conversation with my brother was cut short: Me: "Oh well, we had pretty much said everything we wanted to say..." Camille: "What! I could never end a conversation like that!" Rachel: "Heh...You could never end a conversation!"
