"The computer thinks that's my favorite song and does want not play the other ones" - reason why the Autoplay will not work on her CD and only the first track will play.
"My eyes are turning brown Mommy, will you still love me ?" - anxious on first discovering that her eyes are really dark brown and not black like she had thought.
When J wiped my cheek with her hand after kissing me I asked "Why did you wipe it away ?" "Because it was not pretty. I'll give you a pretty kiss and you can keep it".
"What animal would I be if I had one thousand teeth ?" on being told that children don't have as many teeth as adults do.
"This is not a losing game. If you're out you still can play. Racing is a losing game" consoling me when I kept losing the Hot Potato game J taught me.
"If I stayed in your tummy until I was ten years old, would it be very hard for you to pop me out ?" on seeing a museum exhibit showing the development stages of a human embryo.
"After you become hundred years old, you become zero years old and start over" on why she could not grow any older past hundred.
