Emma: Wasp-es are the worst-est.
Kaylee: but bees are mean AND nice. They sting us which is mean, but they give us honey, which is nice!

Kaylee: oh look, that boy has a rollin' pad like we do!
Me: ...a skateboard?
Kaylee: yes, I wish we had our skateboard so we could practice with him and he could teach us things.

Kaylee: WE SHOULD HAVE A S’MORE NIGHT!
Me: yeah that's a good idea.
Kaylee: WE HAD ZERO S'MORE NIGHTS LAST NIGHT!
Me: ... That is true.

Emma: what IS shrimp?

I was explaining what service dogs are.
Lily: DO THEY HAVE SERVICE BUNNIES??!

Kaylee: why doesn't Han use the forest?
Me: only Luke has the forest.

Emma: I wish we had magic toys, know why?

Emma: They'd clean up the toy room for us.

Kaylee, after a loud motorcycle:
he scared my tummy!

Passing an apartment complex.
Lily: I want to live there! Then we can walk to our neighbor's house!
Emma: I don't want that, I don't want to be all friends and neighbors.

Emma: I want to be a vet pretty much because I can see a lot of baby deers and frogs and and go aww that's so cute!

Kaylee: the Joker and Cruella are similar, aren't they.
Emma: well, if Diana wasn't from Amazon, she wouldn't have super powers either, like Batman.

After the 1000th person told me, "oh, so momma gets all kinds of quiet time once school starts," this week,
Lily: why do they all think we won't be there?

Emma: and I was grumping at Mom because she wouldn't buy me a lunchable.
Jesse: well is that a good reason to be grumpy at Mom?
Emma: yes, it is because I wanted it.

Me: is that your feet that stink?
Kaylee: no, my feet smell like flowers!

Emma: scary movies really give me the nightmares.

Kaylee: what are teenagers?
Lily: people who are done with school and who lay around on their phones all the time and listen to music. That's what I'm gonna do when I'm a teenager.
Me: ....no, you probably won't.
Lily: well I'm going to listen to music all the time!
Kaylee: I'll be on my phone all the time.

Kaylee crying: I just don't want cry drops on my shirt!

Emma: GRRRRRR MINECRAFT IS BEING REALLY SWITCHY.

Kaylee: I wish I was a teddy bear, then I'd cuddle with myself.

Kaylee: can we play in the creek? It's green. I promise we won't drink it.

Emma: ew I just achoo'd on my hand.

Lily: I want a baby brother.

5 seconds later
Kaylee: Emma has systemic juvenile arthritis, that's sickness.
Me: 😂🤦

Trying to explain why all the teachers were protesting here a few months ago.
Lily: well I guess that's a good way to get more money
Emma: a better way is a garage sale.

Emma: MOM Kaylee dropped a goldfish where you park and ate it.
Me: oh well what can you do.
Lily: sell her?

Lily singing presidents: Wilson, Harding, Kool-Aid..

Reviewing the states.

Passing an eyebrow threading store at the mall.
Lily: what's that?
Me: oh sometimes ladies don't like the shapes of their eyebrows so they go there to have them fixed.
Emma:  oh like triangles and squares?

Emma: Lily is being a grumpy-potamus.

Lily: what is the word that means being creative?
Me: ...uh, imaginitive?
Lily: no, like if you go camping and have way too many clothes, but forgot your tent? So you make a tent out of your clothes?
Me: Oh, improvise?
Lily: YES!
(Note, I will make sure we remember a tent when we camp next 😂)
