Snippets

Hello, this is Miss A.F.!
     I love listening to little kids and their problems. I like trying to figure out how their minds work. It can be great entertainment.
The youngest kids in my family provide the most interesting material:

"Leah! Leah! Help!"
"What is it?"
"She said she was gonna shoot my Curious George monkey!"
*slight exasperation* "Just take the monkey away from this room."
"But she said she was going to shoot it!"
"With what? She doesn't have a real gun."
"I KNOW THAT!!!

"Hey, Leah, will you help me type in Nick Jr. games?"
"Sure. Here, now, what makes the 'n' sound?"
*stares at keyboard*
"Okay... do you know what makes the 'n' sound?"
*stares at screen*
"Little brother, if I didn't know any better, I'd say you were ignoring me."
*stares at screen*
*in mock tears* "You never listen to me!"
"That's cuz you talk too much."

This one's a conversation between my two youngest siblings:
"I want to get a dog. Do you want a dog?"
"Yeah... but only if it's a girl."
"Why?"
"So it would have puppies."
"You need two dogs to have puppies, silly. Don't you know that?"
"Fine, we'll get two girls."

Here's my favorite, my little sister displaying her split-personality in front of the mirror:
"I can't believe you would do that!"
"Do what?"
"Kill a poor little butterfly!"
"That wasn't me!"
"You liar!"
"I would never lie!"
"I'M NOT YOUR FRIEND ANYMORE!"
"Please come back! I'll never do it again!"
"Like I can believe you! You lied to me about the lip-gloss!"
*bursts into hysterical sobs*
"Just leave me alone!"

Happy Sunday!
