Quips

I wasn't feeling too good and Alec has been picking on Sam.
Me: "Please be nice, Santa will not come and visit if you naughty"
Alec looked curious and said: "He will punish me?"
Me: "If you mean by no presents, the answer is yes"
Alec: "Will he banish me until just the skeleton? Like the skeleton shirt? And then, and then my bones will disappear?"
Me: "Where, did you get all those ideas?
Alec: "Doodlez, Mom"
Me: "I'm going to cut back your TV time"
Alec: "But Mom, it's good for my elucation" (read: education)

After shower, Alec put his clothes on by him self. He has chosen a tee he hasn't wore in a long time. The neck is a bit smaller for him now. He forcefully pull down his tee but failed.
Alec: "Mom! Where am I? I AM SCARED!"

Alec has been nagging me at the grocery store to buy him a toy. I said "No" but he nagged and nagged about it complaining that he doesn't have enough toys, how he is so sad that he doesn't have 'ANYTHING'. Basically exaggerating like he has been living in chains. At the cashier counter, he asked for a Popsicle and I said yes. He took a bite and exhaled heavily and said: "Oh....I feel so much better!"
