Bean: Wouldn't it be nice if a nice girl monkey came to tell that skunk to stop messing up our yard?
Me: Um... sure. That would be nice. Why a girl monkey?
Bean: Because monkeys have hands like people and can pick things up, and feet like hands so they can climb trees.
Me: Good point. (forgets to ask why not a boy monkey)
On the way back from the bus stop, Peanut carrying acorns, me carrying my tea:
Peanut: What if someone put an acorn in someone's tea?
Me: Someone should not put an acorn in someone's tea.
Peanut: If someone did that, someone would have a time out.
