“Dad, I just created a new map in Weewar. You’ll like it. It’s...”
– Gavin
Gavin: What's softball?
Madeline: Is the ball just softer than baseball?
Duff: It's a bigger ball.
Madeline: Why use a bigger ball?
Duff: You'd want to if you're a wuss. :)
Madeline: But Uncle Russ plays softball and he's not a wuss.
Duff: What would make you think that Uncle Russ isn't a wuss?
Gavin: He *does* need knee pads and elbow pads to rollerblade. What's up with that?
Benjamin: Mom, can I play with this play-doh toy?
Kelly: After you clean up your previous project.
Benjamin: OK! (Excitedly starts cleaning up)
10 minutes later, Benjamin's done cleaning up. Keagan now notices what's going on.
Keagan: Benjamin, that play-doh toy is actually mine.
Benjamin: Oh no! Mom said I could use it!
Keagan: Mom! That toy is mine!
Kelly: Benjamin, Keagan's right. I forgot that's her toy. You need to ask her to use it.
(Keagan starts running toward Benjamin in an effort to reacquire her toy.)
Benjamin: (while *frantically* running away) Keagan! Can I use your toy? Can use this? Can I use it?? Keagan, can I use your toy? Can I?
Keagan: No. Give me my toy back Benjamin.
Benjamin: Ahhhaarraagrhhh! Mom! She said No! She said No! Wahahaaaaaa!
Kelly: Benjamin, maybe you could use the other play-doh toy.
Benjamin: Yes! I love that toy! Keagan, here's your toy. There's a K on it. It must be yours.
