Spoken Gems

While we were outside playing:

Saffryn: "The mosquitoes will be coming out in 10 minutes. When they come out they will suck your blood. So let me tell you the rules: when they suck your blood you get a leaf and tickle it. That distracts it. Then you get a big stick and hit 'em. That's how you do it."

Pierce got in his chair and in a really rude voice said, "Push me mom."
Me: "I don't like the way you said that. You don't talk to people that way. You will need to be patient and wait a minute because I am finishing getting dinner on plates."
Pierce with a big dramatic sigh, "Fine. I'll wait forever."
