Loudly Stating What We Were All Thinking!

Our Fareway has these really cute little carts for the kids to push around the store and fill with their very own groceries. And for the kids who chose not to walk through the store, they have little cars for the kids to sit in that are attached to the front of carts. The kids can "drive" while their parents push them along. Ethan and Olivia always enjoy picking either the "kid carts" or the "car carts" when we grocery shop. While the kids and I were grocery shopping last week, we noticed a family who felt the need for a car cart AND a kid cart for just one little boy. His dad was pushing the boy in the car cart while his mom was pushing the kid cart behind him. When Olivia saw this she laughed out loud and shouted, "Ha! A parent pushing a kid cart! That's silly!"

Marriage

Olivia believes that when two people kiss on the lips they "almost marry each other." Every once in a while, Olivia will plant a big wet one right on my lips and say, "Oh! We almost married each other! Oh no! We're two girls!"
I find it pretty humorous that Olivia is more concerned with the fact that we are both girls (which is actually legal in some states) than the fact that we are related. She obviously still has a lot to learn about the laws of marriage, but I will save that for another day. Right now I'll just let her be my innocent 3-year-old almost wife!

Graham Crackers According to Olivia

This is how my conversation went with Olivia after her second day of school...
Me: How was school?
Olivia: Good.
Me: What was for snack?
Olivia: Graham crackers. I ate some, but I didn't like them.
Me: Oh, you didn't like them?
Olivia: They were potentially not good.
