Matteo:
A Recently Overheard Conversation:

You: "Lilah, you're almost two!  You're going to be bigger than me when you grow up!  You're going to be the boss!  Of doggies and babies and ponies and money!"

Sister: "Yeah!"

You: "And suitcases!  Do you like suitcases?  You can roll them!"

Sister: "Yeah!"

(Both slurp juice)

End of conversation.



Lilah:  The secret to a really successful game of hide-and-go-seek is disguising yourself completely with melted chocolate.
