Jon said to Robert (in the midst of one of their many Hot Wheels scenarios), "I am going to kill you!" I said, "I don't like that language." He very slyly replied, "You don't like English?"

Jon went to a bowling party, and every time he knocked down a pin, he lifted up his arms and said "Victory!"

We were discussing Hot Wheels (again) and I mentioned a scene in one of the movies. Jon said, "Good times...good times."

We were discussing space travel, and Robert mentioned that the first creature in space was a dog. I asked him if he knew what the dog's name was, and he said "Dead dog".

We went to a old-fashioned hardware store the other day, and Jon said, "This looks like an old-fashioned store." He's only four and a half. What does he know about old-fashioned?

I was at school with Robert celebrating Dr. Seuss' birthday. I was listening to one of his classmates read "Ten Apples Up On Top" and we were discussing the how much of the book just wasn't very believable--first there is a lion and tiger in a suburban neighborhood, one of the animals was walking on a telephone wire, etc. She said,"Yeah, and this tree has been toppled over...only Bigfoot could do that, oh, and God, God could do that too."

I was putting Jon to bed last night, and he said "Stay with me..." and I thought he was going to say "until I go to sleep", but he said "Stay with me until I power down." And within five seconds, he powered down. Easiest. Bedtime. Ever.
