Mary: Can you think of some words that rhyme with "it"?
Henry: Pit
Mary: Good. What else?
Henry: Tit?...Is that a word Mommy?
Mary: Yes. Tit is a word.
Henry: (thinks for a moment)...Have you ever seen one?
Adam: (giggles)
Mary: Yes, I have seen one. Can you think of any more words that rhyme with "it"?

Clock Plant
Henry: Can I have a prayer tonight?
Adam: Yes.
Henry: Can I whisper in your ear?
Adam: Yeah.
Henry: (whispering quietly) That no asteroids will hit us (frequent request from Lydia) and no clocks will hit us.
Adam: Says prayer including no asteroids or clocks hitting any of us.
Lydia: But clocks don't fall from the sky!
Adam: One time there was a tornado over a lake and the fish got sucked up and fell all over the place. If there was a tornado over a clock plant maybe Henry's prayer would let Heavenly Father know we need some help to not get hit by a clock. (Adam starts walking out of the room.)
Lydia: But there's no trees...There's no such thing as a clock plant!
Adam: (Dawning on him that there is more than one meaning to the word plant) Lydia, the word plant can mean factory...if there was a tornado over the clock factory.
Funny that Mary and Lydia were reading Ozma of Oz and in tonight's chapter Dorothy ate lunch from a tree that grew lunch boxes with sandwiches. No idea how Lydia was imagining those clocks, but she was standing her ground that there was no such thing as a clock plant.

Messing, Chewing, Licking
Lydia: My "right here" hurts. (Points at her wrist)
Mary: Have you been messing with it, chewing on it, or licking it?
Lydia: I've been messing with it, chewing on it, AND licking it!
Adam: (Looks at Mary bewildered) How on earth did you know!?!

Because Why!
Adam: Why are you making that face?
Henry: Because why?
later...
Lydia does something absurd...
Mary: Why did you do that?
Lydia: Because
Mary: Because why?
Lydia: Because I felt like it! (the most likely answer for a 4-year old)
Adam in his head: Ohhhh, now I understand Henry, he learned that from Mommy!
Henry: Because why?
