Conversations with Kids

Cora after watching me nurse Marin for the first time: "Oh, I get it now! One side is dinner and the other side is dessert!"

Annaliese after totally ignoring multiple directives to clean up: "I can't hear you, Mommy. My eyes are closed!"

Chris' favorite color is orange, so to butter him up, Annaliese collects and gives him orange things. Then, when she gets mad at him, she says, "I'm never giving you anything else orange ever alive, Daddy!" (we hear "I don't want to see you ever alive," "I'm not doing ___ ever alive," etc. I think it means forever)
