"Your toe nails look funky. You need a pediture. Too bad everything is closed."
Video chatting with his teachers who were all in their respective homes: "Oh hey, are you in our new school? I like it. It looks cozy."
"E, you are seriously getting on my very last nerve."

Compliments of M:
While giving the donkey a carrot treat- "Willow, sit!"
She came into the bathroom today and announced that dad and J have wieners but her and I have "bottoms. I mean ladies. Lady butts!"

H (5) wanted to play doctor’s office: H: hello. Please sit in the waiting room. Here’s a magazine. And then she left me there for 20 minutes while she saw her stuffed animal patients first. Apparently she paid attention last time I took her for a checkup.

I jokingly referred to this puzzle as “a giant vagina” to DH and now that’s all the kids will call it. As in, “Daddy, Mom is doing the giant vagina!”

P: E please stop singing. It’s horrifying.
(It really is. But I would never tell her that.)

Last night during prayers, P said:
And I want to pray for the corona virus. Bc he’s acting like he’s the boss of the whole world. And that is not how we treat people.

Nugget has recently started saying "kitty please" (instead of "pretty please") and "kitty swear" (instead of "pinky swear") and it's so stinking cute. And she calls Pigtails "Pink tails." I really hope she keeps this up for a long time.

When I get myself some fruit, F sits and cries for fruit. I give it to him and he just plays with it and makes a mess. Argh!

Apparently both girls have convinced themselves that Jeff Bezos is going to sneak into their bedroom in the middle of the night and steal the money from their piggy banks. I don't really know how it happened, but I think that this is the way it went down.
Me (in response to something that DH said): We're not rich like Bezos C: Bezos isn't rich like M is rich! M has lots of monies. Me: M is richer than Bezos?!?! DH, M is richer than Bezos! DH: I'm emailing my boss to quit right now! M: I'm not that rich. Me: Yeah, Bezos probably has more money C: Where did he get all that money? Did he steal it?!?! Me: Well, ha, kind of. C: Is he going to steal M's money? Is he going to steal MY MONEY?! Me: I don't think that - C: Bezos is going to steal our money M! We must hide it!
And they ran off to hide their money. At bedtime M came downstairs and was all, "Mom, is Bezos really going to sneak into our room tonight and steal our money? Do we need to hide it?"

P has started saying to-mah-to instead of to-May-to.
And no, we don’t watch Peppa Pig. So what’s up with the British pronunciation?

R is on her Zoom call for school and her friend H brought her dad for show and tell. He talked about how he’s a volunteer fire fighter and R raises her hand with a question and ask “Do you play any games on Nintendo? That’s what my dad likes to do.” 😂😂😂😂

Nugget declared that we should get some lemons because she wants to make a lemonade stand to get money to buy toys. I told her that might not work right now because of the germs, and then said, "You know, you could earn some money by doing some extra helping around the house, like sweeping the kitchen." Her response was "No thanks, I just want to sell lemonade and get money"

There’s a nest of baby birds on our porch. B asked what kind of birds they are and I told him they are starlings and he now refers to them as Star Wars birds.

Her response was "No thanks, I just want to sell lemonade and get money" Ha! I gotta say, the lemonade stand thing is not my favorite. R and her friends did it last year. And it couldn't just be R's stand.. the neighbor kids had to help too, so they split the money evenly. But it was such a cluster 🙈 and of course, we tried to weave in basic accounting into it, so R understood she had to put away some money to pay for supplies to do it again (i.e.- lemons and sugar and cups don't just magically appear for her "business"). We did not set up another stand after that LOL And last night, I tried suggesting to A that she could do extra chores to earn money for a doll she wanted, but that was met with "nooo! Why can't YOU just buy it for me??"
