A: Ok Mama, why did the boy throw a croc off a cliff?
Me: Uh, is this an animal or a shoe?
A: I think it's a shoe.
Me: Ok, I don't know, why?
A: Because he wanted to see time fly!!!
Me: I'm pretty sure that was supposed to be 'clock'...
A: Oh. That makes more sense.

A just tried to "play a joke on W". She managed to run into the wall so hard she gave herself a bloody nose and split lip.

Daddy has learned the hard way this evening that "you have a little owie? I will put some sauce on it and eat your finger" is not a good joke with small children. I told him he has to get up with anybody having nightmares tonight...

A has started randomly yelling "Shark!!" while we are driving. Then says "oh, just kidding, I didn't really see one." Yeah, I was really worried...

W was convinced a leftover piece of broccoli was a spider, so I ate it to prove it wasn't. She looked at me with an open mouth in shock and then laughed a little.

So I pointed to a piece of parsley on her hand and said breathlessly "oh my gosh, what is that on your hand?!"

She went BALLISTIC screaming at Nana to get it off. With a betrayed look she said sternly, "Bad joke, mom!"

The girls are playing knock knock jokes.

A to W: "Knock knock. Who's there? Ho. Ho who? Hotel."

Hmmm. Maybe not the best word to break in half...
