Conversation over Breakfast-For-Dinner

MAEVE: Hi everyone!  Elf on the Shelf took Barbie's bathtub and is in the Christmas tree sitting in the bathtub!

ADDIE: Do you want to hear something funny? This is for real! We're eating hot cereal for dinner!

M: Well, YOU are.

A: For real. Seriously. Maeve is eating eggs, but Clark and I are eating hot cereal.

M: Addie, can I have some of the dessert you got for dessert?

A: Of course. Because you are my sister and I love you. 

M: Two nights ago, Mike came over, and just so you know, it is not my dad, because his name is Mike too.  We had fun playing with him and he is a good book reader.  Mike is my daddy's friend from high school.  

D: Actually, college.

M: oh.

A: Dad, can it be my turn again? [Laughing.] And when you and when Mike were in day care... when you were in day care, you took a nap on a dirty couch that had bugs on it and now you have bugs on you!  [Lisa told the girls a story about how I used to nap on the couch in our college's theater club room.  Admittedly, the couch was pretty gross.  Canisius College: Where Leaders Are Made By Growing Them From Couch Mold.]

M: Ha ha, bugs!

A: Do you want to hear something? Clark, today, he needed some tubes in his ear. And his eyes. So they put drops of tubes in his ears and eyes.

M: Actually, it was only Clark's ears, not his eyes. And Clark is waaaaaay better now. He didn't even cry at his surgery! He is a very silly boy and I love him.
