4-Year Old Conversations

Now that Connor is 4, we have had some very interesting conversations...

First, Connor has come up with a new nickname for his sisters..."The littles." This can be used in a number of ways such as:

"Mama! The Littles are getting into my room!"(a tragedy, obviously) or "Come on Littles, lets play with cars and trucks" (the littles usually ignore such requests), and "Mama, are my Littles sleeping? Should I wake them up to play?" (Umm, definitely not).

Today as I am dropping off a movie we rented Connor asks,
C: Is that the movie that you and daddy watched after me and my littles were asleep?
M: Yep.
C: You didn't like it?
Me: No, we liked it.
C: They why are you returning it after watching it ONLY ONCE?
Me: Well, we rented it. That's kinda like borrowing something. I need to return it today.
C: So, you like to just watch a movie ONCE then give it back?
Me: Yep.
C: Please don't return any of my movies! Not Lightening McQueen, Not Monsters, Not Nemo. I like to watch them a LOT! (says the kid who watches the same three movies mentioned here over, and over, and over...)
Me: I know. Don't worry. We own those. They are ours. We don't have to return them.
C: But YOU only like to watch other people's movies ONCE and then give them back?
Me: Yes, I know it is hard to believe.

Lastly, while talking to Connor on the phone from work:
C: Good bye
Me: Good bye
C: Wait! Mama wait! I have one more question for you.
Me: Okay, I am still here.
C: Did you still remember how to get to our home?
Me: Yes, I still remember.
