The Good Fight


"Hey, Dad! Watch this! Fight! Fight! Fight! I'm punching and fighting with my hands! See?"

"That's a little on the violent side, Bud. Didn't we talk about toning that down a little?"

"It's okay, Dad. I'm fighting germs."

Overheard at the Play-date



"Bob? Thanks for having me over for a play-date. My dad told me to stop asking him all the time about coming over to your house."

"My mom said that to me too about play-dates!"

"Yeah. It takes planning from our parents and that means a phone call or maybe an email."

"I know."

"So yeah, he told me I have to be patient."

"Mia? You really have to just keep asking anyway. That's how it really happens."

Loyalties


"Mom? Why isn't Miss Marguerita teaching my swimming class this time?"

"She's teaching a different class for this series. You have a new teacher now."

"Miss Laura?"

"Yeah. She seems nice."

"Miss Laura means nothing to me, Mom."

The Eyes


"I can shoot 2,009 lasers out of my eyes, Mom. I am telling you the truth."

"Is that right?"

"Yeah and I can do it faster than a spider can move."

"Whoa."

"And I am silent as flowers."

Mischief of One Kind and Another

"Hey, Mom? Remember that time I did that joke on Daddy?"

"Which joke was that?"

"That time I put my booger in his ear."

"Yep. I remember."

"That was a good one. Want to hear a joke, Mom?"

"No thanks."
