Music Man

We sent C to play his keyboard for a little bit. All was quiet
so I went up to check, and found him hard at work writing music.

Some treble clef practice

Me: Are you going to help me make squash fries for dinner?
C: I never like squash fries!
Me: But you helped pick it out.
C: It's for nights when you are alone!
...
Me: Did you like them?
C: They are fine.
...
Dad: Those fries were pretty yummy!
C: I almost liked them!

C: And one day we had a substitute in the library!  And one of the characters was the lady that unlocks the gate!

C: I am really not very happy that it won't be Easter soon.

C: I have to watch the presidents!  They are showing their percentages!

Me: Don't pull on the kitty that way; he's an old kitty.
C: Will he last forever?
Me: No, buddy, nothing lasts forever.

C: I want the kitty to give me a high-five, but he isn't listening to me!

C: I very missed you.  I hadn't seen you before.
Really? Never ever?

C: I'm huuuuungry!
Me: Why don't you finish your roll?
C: I'm not hungry enough for that! Just for a bite of pie!

C: Mom, I'm gonna keep you.
Dad: Good, I think we'll keep her too.
Whew!

C: I really want to go to work with you!
Me: I'm off for a few weeks, buddy.
C: Why?
Me: To take care of you and the babies.
C: But what if I get into trouble?

Me: Can you lift this baby chair or is it too heavy?
C: I am strong because I eat so many vegetables!

C: I'm here to to take care of the babies so you can just do what you're supposed to.
Me: Yeah, and what am I supposed to be doing?
C: You can just listen to Dad and whenever the babies cry, you fix their problems!

Me: Could you close the door for me?
C: So the babies don't escape?
Me: So the kitty doesn't escape.
