Oh, these kiddos.
They are SO funny and say such great things. Here is a sampling of recent quotes and conversations from our household:
After many conversations related to turning left, turning right or going straight.
Sam: Mama, do I have a straight hand?
Seemingly out of nowhere, but maybe related to Snapchat or some dolls we have with removable / interchangeable heads.
Sam: Can we try new faces? Sam can be Eli, Eli can be daddy and daddy be mama! We can move our heads. (Pause.) Oh no! Our heads are stuck!
And later, overheard mumbling to himself.
Sam: We can't try new faces. Our faces are stuck.
Watching / listening to migrating birds.
Sam: Birds! Have fun at South!
Eli's standard apology script - adapted from the script we gave him and later adopted by Sam. I first wrote this down months ago and we are still trying to work on correcting this.
Eli: I'm sorry, ___name of offended___. Thank you for ___offense___. (For example:) I'm sorry Sam. Thank you for hitting you.
Me: Do you think Maggie could poop in the potty?
Eli: No. She's too little. Maybe she would go down [the drain] and we can't have a baby anymore.
Talking to our Amazon Echo.
Sam: Alexa! Do you have a mama and daddy?
And another day, talking to Alexa.
Sam: Alexa, I hurt my ankle! Alexa, look!
As we were talking about the difference between dairy cattle and beef cattle and noting that grandpa's cattle don't usually make milk.
Sam: They have apple juice, though!
And when I argued otherwise, he was insistent.
I was so confused until I realized he meant that he gets to drink apple juice at grandpa's house.
Falling off the curb and onto the street.
His cousin: Sam! Are you okay?
Sam (sounding really happy, surprised, relieved): A car didn't get me!
To me with my hair in a ponytail, which doesn't happen often.
Sam: Oh no! Where is your hair?!
More "kid talk."
