climbing vs walking

me: do not climb up on the table.
the kid: but mommy, I have to get up on the table so I can reach the other side of it.
me: um... no, just walk around to the other side.
the kid: but I like climbing better.
me: but climbing on the table will get you in big trouble.
the kid: oh. well. walking isn't so bad then.

habla espanol?

the kid got ahold of the remote for the dvd player and changed the language setting to spanish...
Look mommy! I made it speak spanish. I like it better in spanish.

the kid insisted on calling me when I was on my way home from work...

fair and square

me: I caught you fair and square

the kid: no. you got me fair and rectangle.
