- We called the children to come to the supper table.  When 4yo dd arrived, she was out of breath.  We asked her what she'd been doing. 

"Playing."

"Playing what?"

"Detective.  I'm a detective and I detect when people have been muhduhd."

-We were driving home from errands and talking about our pet chickens.  10yo dd and I were discussing petting the chickens and just generally lovin' on them.  4yo dd pipes up from the back seat, "Yes, but we can't hug them, or their heads might pop off!"

-Like mother, like son

The phone rang today, and before I could get to it, 2yo ds picked it up and answered it.  After saying "hello" he immediately frowned, pointed at his sisters, and said, "Shhhh!  Be kite!  I on the phone!"
