1. While in car returning home from a weekend with the grandparents:
Ethan: "Mommy, guess what?"
Me: "What, baby?"
Ethan: "I just farted. Just for you!"
Me: "Umm... thanks, sweetie. But you really don't need to tell me about it."
Ethan: *continuing proudly* "That's right: bubbles of stink just came out of my butt! And you're going to smell them in a minute!"
2. At dinner, while Gabe and Ethan are fighting over a small red wooden top. There are two (a red one and a purple one) - they each received one in their Christmas stockings:
Ethan: "The red one is mine!"
Gabe: "Red one mine!"
Me: "Actually, the red one is Gabe's. The purple one is yours."
Gabe: "Purple one yours, Efan!"
Ethan: "No, I'm pretty sure the red one is mine."
Me: "No, see, I think the purple one is yours. Santa knew your favorite color is purple, so I'm pretty sure he gave you the purple one and he gave you the red one."
Ethan: *looks thoughtfully at the red one in his hand* "But this one has an Ethan-ness to it. The purple one has a Gabe-ness."
