Two funny things

While at the park, Lucy is hanging from the first rung in the monkey bars.
Boy: That's not how you do it.
Lucy: It's how I do it!
Boy: You have to go all the way across.
Lucy: I'm not a professional monkey bar climber, okay? I just like to hang here!

Lucy gets a chewable vitamin C tablet and a glass of water from my chiropractor if she makes it through one of my appointments without destroying their potted plants. On the way out the door she turns and says to the chiropractor, with a sweet smile on her face, "Yum! Nothing better than vitamin C and a tall, cool glass of water!" Everyone in the chiropractor's office is visibly touched. In the elevator on the way back down to the parking lot she says to me, without a hint of irony and with a mouthful of mushy vitamin C, "actually, a trip to the beach and an icecream cone would be better."

Cloudy with a chance of pee pee

Lucy: "Rain is like cloud pee pee."
I will never look at rainy days the same way.

Animal Trainer

Lucy: "Mom, I'm a really good animal trainer."
Me: "Oh yeah?"
Lucy: "Yeah. Look."
I turn around to see the kitchen counter covered in cat food.
Lucy: "I trained Lena to eat this cat food and she's doing it!"
Miraculous.
