As I'm carefully writing Ezra's name in block letters on the back of his LeapPad.
Ezra: You're doing a great job, Mommy! Nice quality work!
Me: Thanks.
Ezra: What's funny?
Me: That just sounded like something you probably heard at kindergarten.
Ezra: We do do quality work at kindergarten.

An hour ago, Ezra sliced up a banana then left it on the counter. Jude sat beside it and asked, "What's that? Sammy throw up?"
Me: I think Ms. Stephanie [student teacher] looks a lot like Ms. Heather [kindergarten teacher], don't you?
Ezra: Well, Ms. Heather has these kind of little lines on her face, kind of like a moustache. You have them too.
Me: Yes, wrinkles. Thanks.

In a public restroom.

Jude: Is this for big kids or little kids?
Me: This is the women's restroom, but it's okay for you to be in here, because you're with a woman.
Jude: Who's a woman?
Me: I'm a woman.
Jude: You are Mommy. Not a woman.
Ezra: I'm the only wegetarian kid in my class. Well, one of the teachers is a wegetarian, but I'm the only kid that's a wegetarian. When you and Mama die, me and Jude can decide if we want to eat meat. ... Why are you laughing?
