Colin: I had pizza with Jeremy last night.
Me: What kind?
Colin: Combination. I did not like the olives.
Me: When daddy was a little boy, he did not like olives either. But he likes olives now. (Here is where I expect Colin to say something about how we likes pepperonia or Hawaiian pizza or to reiterate that he does not like olives.)
Colin: That is because grown up taste buds are different from kids taste buds. You also do not like sugary snacks.
Conversation 2 (with Katie)
Me: Katie, did you like the Disney Princess backpack you got for Christmas?
Katie: Yes! It's what I've always wanted so I can go to kindergarten.
Mom: Katie also got pom poms.
Me: Wow, Katie, you can be a pom-pom girl!
Katie: No, daddy, you mean I can be a cheerleader.
Me (chagrined): Oh. Right. You can be a cheerleader.
