Aidan to Leo: Those used to be my pants, but they don't fit me anymore, so they're not mine. They're yours..... You're my little Goodwill.

(Aidan, beaming up at me - )
A: Am I a polished penny? Because a polished penny is even better than a shiny penny.

I recently got my hair highlighted. Leo was very intrigued by this and asked,
Mommy, where did you get your hair painted?

Later, he told Aidan that "Mommy has little hairs that are the same color as my hair." Aidan was thoroughly confused until he got home and saw me, and then I could see the lightbulb going off in his head....

Leo was studying this small chunky batman kid action doll that we have. He stared at it intently, then pointed at him and asked, "Um, is that a diaper?"
Aidan indignantly responded "No!"
Jeff went on to explain that all superheroes wear tight-fitting clothes because they can't let anything get in the way of rushing to someone's rescue. (I was fascinated to see where he was going with the whole tight fitting clothes thing.) He said,
"Look, even Daddy has Superhero pants like those. [he whips out a bright red pair of undies he wore with a Superman costume]. "
Leo: Ooh! Like Superwhy! Superwhy has those too! But why don't I have any?
Daddy: You will have some when you get bigger.
Leo: But I am bigger! I am!!
Aidan was silent through this discussion, but very impressed with Daddy's superhero pants.

We are all riding in the car together, on our way to get ice cream with Grandma and Grandpa.

Aidan: (sigh) Mammal, Leo, it's MAmmal.
