Before bed one night, Gabbie and I were talking and she mentioned a dream she had.
Gabbie: I had a silly dream the other night.
Me: What was it?
Gabbie: There was this giant and it squashed our house!
Me: It did? Did you get away?
Gabbie: Yeah, me and the babysitter.
Me: What about Kiernan?
Gabbie: Well you were at the store and Kiernan was still in the house. He got out right before the giant squashed the house.
Me: What did you do next?
Gabbie: We ran away fast and then went to the store where you were. You know what else I did?
Me: What?
Gabbie: Well it was just a dream so I didn't really say it, so it's ok right?
Me: What did you say?
Gabbie: I called the giant a butthole. (giggling)
Me: LOL (partially amused but also wondering where she heard the word "butthole" before)
-----------------------------------
Gabbie: Mommy, what if we lived at Target? We could put a sign above Target that said, "Gabbie's Family Target."
Me: (Intrigued by the idea) That would be pretty cool. Would everything in Target be free?
Gabbie: Yes, because no one would work there. It would only be for us so we could take what we want.
I like this girl's thinking!

Kiernan:
Silence.....
I come closer to where he is and hear heavy breathing.
Me: What are you doing Kiernan?
Kiernan: No, I writing. (markers in hand writing all over a piece of paper and his hand)
Me: Where did you get the markers?
Kiernan: No Mommy, I writing.
Me: Kiernan, we only write on paper not our hands and body.
Kiernan: Oooooh Kkkkkkkk
---------------------------
Me: Time to clean up.
Kiernan: No! I playing choo choos!
Me: No, it's time to clean up.
Kiernan: No! I playing choo choos!
Me: Kiernan if you don't start to clean up, you will have to sit in time out.
Kiernan: No time out!
Me: Yes time out. 1! 2!...
Kiernan: Ooooh Kkkkkkkkk (starts to clean up)
(Insert any other activity and this is the conversation we have often with this child.) :(
