Offspring Stories of the Day

Mags has been pretty chatty lately. Here are some of the recent gems:

Mags: Hey mom, can we decorate these eggs? Then we'd have easter eggs!
Me: Well, we could, but its not easter. How about if we make, ummm (searching) ...graduation eggs?
Mags: Awww yeah! That's an excellent idea, mom!! Gimme a high five!

Mags: Teachers are mammals, mom.
Me: I...what?

Mags: Its really bad to get stoned. Being stoned is a bad thing.
Me: Pardon?!
Mags: See, you have to watch out for the asteroids so they don't crash into you because if they do you'll get stoned and getting stoned really hurts.
Me: Yes, yes that's true.

Mags: My brother is dead.
Me: Uhh, what do you mean?
Mags: Well, my brother went into a building full of knives and he got all cut up and then he died.
Me: (horrified, but trying to not make a big deal) Oh, well, uhh....
Mags: But its ok, because I just got another one.
Me: How did you do that?
Mags: I just went to a country far away and got another one.
