Daddy: No.
Little Sister: (turning to Big Sister) Let's jump on the couch!!
Daddy: Noo!
Little Sister: I wasn't talking to you.
Mommy: (wiping Little Sister's nose) Is your nose still icky? The medicine I gave you should help it to stop running.
Little Sister: Yeah, we just want to help it to be walking.
(Mommy is closing the windows and curtains in the girls' bedroom before tucking them in.)
Big Sis: Mom, why are you closing the windows? If I get hot, I might have a bad dream.
Mommy: I know it's hot, but I can't leave the windows open in your room at night.
Big Sis: Why? We don't want stuff to get in?
Mommy: Yeah, sort of.
Big Sis: Like bugs? And bees?
Mommy: Yes, we don't want that-
Big Sis: And ninjas.
Little Sis: Mom, get your hug & your kiss & your cheers!
(Little Sis gives Mommy the most precious kiss & hug, and then sticks out both of her hands. One is saying "I love you" in sign language. The other is... trying. )
Mommy: Cheers. (she presses her "I love you" fingertips against Little Sister's tiny ones).
Little Sister: You can just kiss this hand. It doesn't work. It's not cheers. It's... cheerios.

The Ninjas thing has made me laugh out loud. And then I read it to hubby to explain my laughter & barely said it out load w/ o cracking up first. Sooo funny!
