Deep


"Bob, did you know that someone ate junk food for breakfast, lunch, and dinner forever and then they died?"

"Because of the junk food?"

"Yeah."

"But how do you know, Felix?"

"My dad said."

"Oh."

"Yeah."

"Hmm..."

"Yeah..."

"I guess we should have a pillow fight now, Felix."

"You're right."

Dinner Is Served


"Mom, do you think the lizard that Felix found will eat a cricket?"

"Probably."

"How about a roly poly bug?"

"Maybe? Do you have either of those?"

"No, but we've got some ants. Delicious ants."

The Usual


 "How was school today, Bob? What did you do?'

"You know, the usual."

"No I don't actually know. What's the usual?"

"We did some stuff about vowels and consonants and I had to say which letters in my name were vowels and which were consonants and I did it right so I got a sticker."

"That sounds good. Anything else?"

"Some girl chased me around the playground a lot but that's it."

It Was A Monday


"How was school?"

"It was horrible, horrendous, a nightmare."

"Wow. What happened?"

"We got to play on the big kids' playground but then they don't even let us go on the play structure which is only the best part of the whole thing."

"That ruined your entire day?"

"That and the crafts were hard."

Ride On

"Mom, I'm going to go on all of the scary rides at the carnival that Pops wants to go on. I'm just going to take my throw up chances. I think I get about five of them. If I use up one of my throw up chances and barf it, it's definitely time to go home."
