Quotes of the Day VI

Audrey to Parker, while they're eating a bedtime snack of peaches and rainbow goldfish last night. I'm sitting on the couch nursing Miles. This is proof that Audrey, since the age of two, has thought she was smarter than her parents.

Audrey: "Parkie, how come you always believe what Mommy says but you don't believe what I say? I know just as much as she does!"
Me, butting into the conversation: "Um, Audrey, no you don't. You are five. I'm twenty-eight. You don't know everything, and I don't either."
Audrey: "Well, I know some of the things you know."


Parker, (who, along with Audrey, has a little obsession with all things a) Egyptian or b) related to bodies, especially the dead kind). In the car on the way home from church last night:

Parker: "I can't see the sun."
Me: "That's because it's night time, baby. The sun isn't shining on us right now."
Parker: "It's shining in Egypt. It's always daytime in Egypt. Well, it gets dark when all the mummies are dead."
Me: "Yeah, I think you're right."
