Kate Convos

Convo #1
Kate: MOMMY!  Jack eating feet!
Mommy: Jack is eating his foot?
Kate: Yeah!  Jack eating tail!
Mommy: Oh my goodness, Honey!
(Jack was scratching his foot and then his tail with his mouth...)

Convo #2
(While talking about games to play.)
Mommy: You know what we need to get?
Kate: A bounce house!
Mommy: [Completely taken aback.]  I was thinking more along the lines of Candy Land or Hi-Ho Cherry-Oh, but that's a very good idea!

Convo #3
Mommy: Please don't put your finger in your nose.  Do you need a tissue?
Kate: No, Mommy.  I get bat.
(I couldn't help but laugh out loud.  Fair enough!  But let's please wash your hands when you are done!)

Convo #4
[We had already read books, we had already said goodnight, the lights were off, the stars were on.  It was time for bed.]
Kate: I go potty.
Mommy: You need to go potty?
Kate: Yeah. [Already starting to get out of bed.]
Mommy: We just went potty, sweetie.  It's time for bed now.
Kate: No, I go potty.
Mommy: [Torn between knowing this is just a stall tactic and not wanting to thwart her interest in using the potty.]  Ok, but then it's right to bed after that.
[We use the potty and proceed to sit on the potty.]
Mommy: [After much praise and love and denial of a potty treat.] Ok, honey, let's get wiped and get a new dipe on.
Kate: Mom.  Mom.  Be patient.
Mommy: Uh, what?!
Kate: Mom, be patient.  I go poop.
She had to have learned that at school because we have yet to use that expression in our house!  But I couldn't help but laugh when she said it.
