Girl 1: "Boys can only marry girls."

Girl 2 (3 and 1/2 years old): "You're wrong. My mommy said that boys can marry boys and girls can marry girls. And boys and girls can marry each other too."

I adored hearing this.

"Get over here now! We found dinosaur bones! Real dinosaur bones! It's definitely, definitely a T-Rex... because T-Rex was the coolest."

In case of fire.

"Do you know where fire comes from? I do. It comes from sticks and wood, and this stuff called coal. You pile lots of it together and get fire."

"Looks like it's just you and me." [followed by a wink]

Mouse tales, pt. 2.

3 year old: You'll never believe what I'm about to tell you...  really, you're not going to believe it.

Me: What's up?

Her: I'm getting my own pet mouse.  Like, it's going to live in my room.

Me: Have you thought of a name for the mouse?

Her: Obviously Ariel, like the mermaid.

Me: What color is your mouse?

Her: Green.
