Tasmiya: Did you just put your finger in your belly button?

4 year old: Yes.

Tasmiya: And did you lick your finger?

4 year old: Yes.

Tasmiya: That’s gross! Why would you do such a thing?

4 year old: Because I dropped maple syrup in there.

Tasmiya: Ok. I don’t want to know any more. Thanks.

Tasmiya: So what game are we playing?

4 year old: I have super powers. My super power is lightning.

6 year old: And my superpower is acid.

Tasmiya: OK. That’s a bit scary! So what is my superpower?

4 year old: Well….

6 year old: You don’t really have one.

Tasmiya: Well, how am I supposed to compete with lightning and acid? That’s hardly fair.

(Pause)

4 year old: Ok ok. Your superpower is poop.

4 year old: We just get close to you, smell you and then go phooar! and run away because you stink!
