Annika:  I’m so sad…

Mommy: Why?

Annika: You know my invisible friends?

Mommy: Yes.

Annika: They’re all dead.

Daddy: Oh no…how did they die?

Annika:  I killed them…They said shut up to me…that is not a nice thing to say.

She’s just too cute to take seriously as a serial killer.

Mom: “yes.”

Eric: “do these have protein in them?”

Mom: “why don’t you check the box and see?”

Eric turns the box and studies the nutrition information for about 30 seconds, then looks at mom gravely and says, “I forgot. I can’t read.”

Her mommy knelt down and soothingly explained, "Annika it’s okay to be sad, but it’s not okay to throw a fit."  Eric who was listening nearby piped in with this statement. "Annika, I know somthing that will make you even more sad."  He paused.  "I’m going to Nana’s and you’re not coming."  Thanks for the help Eric.

Mommy: Well, (pauses searching for an explanation) Eric you know how Shannon had a baby in her belly and then it was born. And, remember how Amy got her baby from Texas. Well, Fawnda is going to be getting a baby but this one…

Eric: (sighs and then blurts) You mean adoption.
