The things they say

AJ and Sydney have been on a roll this week. Here are the latest examples out of the mouths of babes.

AJ noting the monstrous zucchini on our dining room table (a gift from a co-worker) asked, "Mommy, why do you have such a big bikini?"

Sydney, drawing on her window while riding in the car, announced, "I'm making footprints with my hands."

Teasing AJ about the size of a large fake spider on a Halloween decoration, I asked, "How scary would it be if it were real?"

AJ answered, "Then it would be a chinchilla spider."

Sydney and AJ were pushing each other's buttons, culminating with Sydney complaining, "Mommy, AJ called me a tattle tale!"
