Riley and I were singing The Farmer in the Dell, and she sang the CHARMER instead of the farmer ;)
April 8
Riley asked what meditation was, and Leighton answered that it was what they were doing the other day. She asked, "Fighting?"

Leighton and Riley were telling me something about a TV show, and Leighton was describing that someone was 'half demon'. Riley said, "Yeah, she's half even!"
April 15
Leighton calls me excitedly from the bathroom to say, "Mommy! Look! I can do leg pit farts!"
April 18
I was reading an email from Therese (who lives in NYC) out loud to Roy and she had mentioned she wished we lived there so they could have us over that night for a BBQ. Leighton got all excited and said, "Are we going?" and I had to repeat to him that the email was from Therese. He got all sad and just said, "Oh."

Riley was drawing out pages for a book she was writing and said, "I'm authoring. That means writing."
April 18
Roy was talking to Leighton and Riley came up beside him, placed her hand on her chest like it was the pledge of allegiance, and stared mouthing some words. It was like she was mocking him!

Riley told us that at school she and Zain were pretending to be married and kissed and Georgia was the flower girl.
April 21
Leighton was telling Riley that the floatie she was wearing in the pool used to be his and now it was hers, and then in a sarcastic voice said, "And if Mommy EVER has another baby, it will be for the baby." I informed him that Mommy was not ever going to have another baby, and he said, "But then Riley will never get to be a big sister." I reminded him that I never got to be a big sister and that I turned out okay!

Leighton made up a joke:
What do you get after it rains cats & dogs? Poodles!
But he says that it is much funnier if you say it without asking a question so it is a statement like this:
It's really raining cats & dogs, isn't it? I just stepped in a poodle!

Riley: What is this roller?
Me: It's called a curling iron.
Riley: Oh! For her dress!
Me: No, for her hair. These little ones are called rollers.
Riley: Yes - like at the salon that day!
April 23
Out of nowhere, Riley said, 'Ugh. I just don't know what to be when I grow up. A cheerleader or a Dr."
April 25
Riley was with me while I tried on some bathing suits at the store. She asked if changing rooms were so that you could try on clothes without other people seeing your armpits.
April 25
We went back into the change room for more bathing suit options for me, and Riley said, "I can see your armpits (as she pointed at my chest). I reminded her that those were not called armpits, and she said, "Oh, right. Your pouches!"
April 25
Leighton made up a joke:
Why do trains smell bad? Because they keep going toot toot!
April 28
Today Riley told me that my bum jiggles like Leighton's. She said it looks like it is made of jelly.
April 28
Riley: I wish we were night crawlers.
Me: Why? What are night crawlers?
Riley: So we could see what goes on at night and into people's houses.
