Esplin kids

Amy (age 6.5): Lynn! Stop bugging me!!!

Lily (age 2.5, while punching the air with each fist) : Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!

(I have no idea where she learned that.)

Oh dear...

 Amy comes to me crying.

"Lynn said the sun is going to explode and the earth will be covered by lava."

Me: Hmm.

(I did explain all about the sun changing into a red giant but it won't be for a long long long time, and explained what a billion years is compared to the human lifespan. I also diffused the situation with Doctor Who, lol)

I want to hold it

Lily sees her sister's chocolate egg on the table, just out of her reach.

Lily: I want to hold Amy's egg, Mama.

Jessica: Why do you want to do that?

Lily: Because I'm very good at it.
