On Tuesday Annie and I discussed the cycle of water. I wasn't sure she had actually taken anything away from it. And then I got my Christmas card.

While watching "The Nutcracker" on TV.
Me: "Look, it's the sugar plum fairy! She's really pretty. And look at that dress...so pink!"
Annie: "Well, she's a ballerina, SILLY."
Me: "Do you have to be pretty to be a ballerina?"
Annie: "Nooo. You have to be pink."
Me: "Look, it's the sugar plum fairy! She's really pretty. And look at that dress...so pink!"

Will wants an ipod touch for Christmas.
Will: "I could use it anywhere. I could use it on the bus, or at school, or on an airplane...anywhere. Except in the grave."
Annie: "Or in the swimming pool."

Will: "Santa gives bad kids nothing, right?"
Me: "Santa gives bad kids coal."
Will: "I think he gives them nothing."
Me: "Well, let's ask your mom."
Mom tells us that Santa gives bad kids coal.
Will: "Awwwww."
Mom: "Is coal worse than nothing?"
Will: "NO. Coal is better than nothing. You can still make toys out of coal. Bad kids should get nothing."
Me: "Santa gives bad kids coal."
Will: "I think he gives them nothing."
Me: "Well, let's ask your mom."
Mom tells us that Santa gives bad kids coal.

Annie and I are playing with her doll. I am acting out the doll, and Annie is the mother.
Doll: Cries.
Annie: "Here, give her to me. I'll sing her a special song."
I hand the doll to Annie.
Annie: (Sings) "You can't always get what you want..."
Doll: Cries.
Annie: "Here, give her to me. I'll sing her a special song."
I hand the doll to Annie.
Annie: (Sings) "You can't always get what you want..."

Annie: "She looks sad."
Me: "Yeah, she does kind of."
Will: "I wonder why she's sad?"
Annie: "Maybe she's looking for a husband and all the boys are sold out."

Will: "I think I'm related to cats."
Me: "Really. What makes you say that?"
Will: "I just...share a lot of the same features. I like to sleep all curled up, and whenever I jump down from something I always land on my two feet. And I'm flexible."
Me: "Well, that doesn't necessarily mean you're related to cats."
Annie: "I'm related to cats too, except I'm actually related to kittens."
Me: "Is that so."
Annie: "Yeah, because I have all those same things, but I really love my mommy. "
