Rock Star

"Mommy, you should get a job being a rock star. I think Mem can watch us when you're at work."

~ Kaley

Sharks

"Honestly, Kaley, I am not sure if the sharks like your shoes."

Pounds

Keira: "Do you know what they call money in England?"
Kaley: "What?"

Keira: "Pounds."

Kaley: "Nuh-uh."

Keira: "Yes, they do." (in a surprisingly good British accent) "May I have 64 pounds, please?"

Kaley: "You're talking like Mexico?"

Keira: "No, I'm talking like England." (again, with the accent) "May I have 64 pounds, please?"

Kaley: "No, it's mine."

Husband

Kaley: "Mommy, I have a husband."

Me: "You do? Why didn't you invite me to the wedding?"

Kaley: "You were there, it's when I was doing ballet, remember?"

Me: "Oh, well, you didn't tell me that was your wedding."

Kaley: "Well, we got married when you weren't looking."

Me: "Is he a nice man?"

Kaley: "Yes, he's very nice.

Me: "Does he always tell the truth? That's very important."

Kaley: "Yes, he always tells the truth. And he's never tired after work, so he can always do the dishes."

Me: "Perfect."

Overheard

"Kaley, take the barrette out of your underwear."

~ Me

I'm Telling

"Kaley, if you tell on me one more time, I'm telling Mommy that you're being a tattletale."

~ Keira

Superheroes

Kaley: "Mommy, I want to be a superhero when I grow up."

Me: "OK. You can be Super Nina."

Kaley: "But how will I get to be super strong?"

Me: "Well, you eat healthy food, take your vitamins, and get lots of exercise."

Kaley: "Does that mean Daddy's a superhero because he is so strong?"

Me: "I suppose so. That would make him Super Dad."

Kaley: "I can't wait until he learns how to fly."
