Evie: “What if a monster comes?”
Me: “Well, that couldn’t happen, because monsters are just for pretend.”
Evie: “Well…what if a dinosaur comes?”

Imagine my own daughter, using science against me!

Evie: “This is a book with directions to make a stairs. You need bugs or spiders to hold them up. Or else a broken window.” – I’d like to say we decorated our stairs for Halloween, but we didn’t. I guess it’s time to clean them up a little bit?

Evie: “My tummy feels like it doesn’t want the regular good food it usual has. It just wants desert.” – Well, it was Halloween night, who can blame her?

Evie, coming down the stairs from trick-0r-treating at a house: “You could just pick whatever candy you wanted out of the bowl, and you didn’t even have to say thank you!”
