After asking Eli to pick up his socks, "All I had scheduled today was play. And look at you. You're making me do errands." Then walked away and yelled, "I'M NOT BEING YOUR ERRAND BOY TODAY!"

On our way home from swim lessons Eli reflected, "Do you know what happened when I jumped off the diving board?"

Pause...

Then very matter-of-factly said, "Struggle."

We were at the park with my friend's brand new baby girl. Lincoln kept going back and forth between the babies, pointing to Jonah and calling him by name, then pointing to the girl baby and calling her, "Pretty Jonah."

Eli, "Mom, is it true that good things come to those who wait? I heard that somewhere."

Me, "Yup. That's what people say. Good things come to those who wait."

Eli, "Except not in an earthquake. Death comes to those who wait in an earthquake."

Lincoln, "Mommy, I need you."

Me, "Okay, I'm coming."
Carson, "Umm. Mom. Lincoln said he needs a popsicle."

Me, "No he didn't, Carson."

Lincoln, "Need popsicle!" 

Carson, "See."

Eli, "What's infinity + infinity?"

Carson, "Uhhh...I don't know."

Eli, "2 infinity. And beyond."
