College snuggles

Me: Charlie, do you think you're going to want to snuggle forever?
Charlie: Yes.
Me: Even when you're in college?
Charlie: Yes.

[Then, after a few moments of silence.  I could practically hear his brain whirring]

Charlie: Daddy, where will you be when i'm in college?
Me: Charlie, I'll be right here.
Charlie: But, Daddy, then how will I find you?
Me: Well, by then Charlie, you'll be able to find your way home by yourself.
Charlie: But, Daddy, what happens if i get lost?
Me: Well, you can always call me and I'll come get you.
Charlie: But, Daddy, I don't know our phone number.
Me: Well, Charlie, by then you WILL know our number.
Charlie: But, Daddy, how will you know where I am to come get me?
Me: You'll tell me where you are.  And I'll come get you anywhere.
Charlie: Ok.

Good question

Charlie: "Did Shakespeare write 'Humpty Dumpty'?"

The Medicine That Makes You NOT Have a Baby

The conversation was about cousins...and the fact that Charlie was soon going to have his "baby of the family" crown knocked off by a new cousin.
Me: Well, Charlie, you might not be the baby of the bigger family anymore.  But you will ALWAYS be the baby of our little family, of the four of us.
Jenn: Yeah, you are NOT going to have a little brother or sister, I can promise you that.
Max (after thinking for a moment or two): Mommy, do you take that medicine that makes you NOT have a baby?
Jenn and I (minds reeling from such a thought from our 7-year old): Duhhhhhhhhhhhh...
Jenn (finally coming up with something 1/2 intelligent to say): Max, that's none of your business.
Max: Well, are you??? Huh???

Penises and Chinatowns

Jenn, teaching the kids the proper nomenclature: Boys have a penis.  Girls have what's called a vagina.
Charlie: A Chinatown?

Keep Me Business!

Charlie (perhaps the slowest eater in the world, in finishing his breakfast long after everyone else is done): "But I'm lonely.  I need somebody to keep me business!"

International Fareed

Charlie (playing with a bookmark "paper doll" of Fareed): He's really cool.  Never forget that.  He's "International Fareed".

Family Dinner

Max: Mommy, can you buy some whole wheat spaghetti?
Jenn: Sure.
Charlie: I love spaghetti.
[BEAT]
Charlie: What's spaghetti?
