Recently heard around our house:
Grace: "Violence is never the answer, Mom!"
Context: Vocal and physical disobedience rewarded with a finger flick to the head (not my proudest moment). Followed immediately by hysterical laughter on my part in response to Grace's indignant, Gandhi-esque response to corporal punishment.
Phil: "Andra, please eat your dinner. You need to eat more than just carbs"
Andra: "Are these good carbs, or bad carbs?"
Context: Andra eating rice and a cheese crisp for dinner after having eaten bread products all day. Followed immediately by parental guidance that these are not the concerns of an 8 year old girl.
