Our Foundling Fathers
Monster X: (Singing along with the t.v. on which the PBS station has an system whereby viewers can choose the Friday afternoon programming) Peanut of choice!
Me: Nope.
MX: What?
Me: America was founded on the idea of freedom of choice. Not peanut of choice.
MX: You are free to choose your own peanut.
Me: Swing and a miss.
MX: Awwwwwee!
The Colonel reports that Monster X has on at least one occasion properly “air quoted” her.
Earlier…
Monster X: (Bounding into our bed early in the morning. She is naked as her room “was warm.” After snuggling with her mother.) These are my nipples!
The Colonel: Yes.
MX: And these are your boobies!
TC: Yes… yes they are.
MX (Long pause): When will I get boobies!?
