 Conversation with Hailey: Hailey: I wish I could play with the playdough stuff… Me: Well, we can’t mix it (school clay). You can play with the play dough tools.  Hailey: That’s what I wanted! You read my mind. 

 Conversation with Darby, Lindsay, and Hailey: Lindsay: I wonder why Hank doesn’t like his name. Me: He does like his name. He just doesn’t like his nickname. Darby: Well, he doesn’t like his name to be so common. Lindsay: I think he likes a name something like Salmon. Me: Solomon? Lindsay: No…like Salmone?   Darby: Maybe he would like the name Edward. Hailey: Or Squidward.  Me: Hahaha! 

 Quote from Lindsay: “I just like making beds and cleaning when I’m not really a’sposed to. But when I’m a’sposed to, I hate it.”

 Conversation with Hailey: Hank: I think we’re about to pass the zoo. Hailey: Do they have dead animals there?  Hank: What?  Hailey: Dead animals. Hank: What?? What’d she say?? Me: Dead animals. Hank: Haha! No, I don’t think they have any dead animals.  Hailey: Maybe they’re made outta whacks.  Me: Did you say wax?? How do you even know what wax is? Where did you learn about wax?  Hank: Did you learn about it in Vietnam?  Hailey: Yeah. When I had whack juice.  Me and Hank: Hahaha! Hailey: And Rory wanted some of my whacks. 

 Conversation with Hailey (first thing in the morning after  being awakened early for a day trip): Hailey: I need a spoon! Hank: Well…go get one. Hailey: But I want YOUR spoon!  Hank: Uh, you can’t have MY spoon, Hailey… Hailey: Aaaaaaagh! 

 Conversation with Hailey: Hailey: I don’t eat a lot of bread. But God eats bread. He was always giving people bread and that other stuff. Me: Wine? Hailey: But I don’t drink wine!

Conversation with Hailey (while we made potato pancakes): Hailey: Now do I flatter it?  Me: Haha. Yes. But first kiss me, because that was so cute. Hailey: Haha. It feels like slime.
