Mommy: Okay.


Alex (looking at his Dr. Seuss bib): I see Green Eggs and Ham!
Daddy: Yeah!
Alex: What's Green Eggs and Ham doing?
Daddy: I don’t know.
Alex (smiling): Would -- would you here, or there? I don't like it anywhere. I don't like green eggs and ham. I don't like them anywhere.


(Alex is sulking during his bath.)
Daddy: We can have a fun bath or we can be sad and cry about it.
Alex: I wanna be sad and you cry about it.

Alex (still sad): I want you to talk about what happened to Alex.

Alex: Talk about Alex was sad again. Okay?
Daddy: Yeah.
Alex: About he went in Claire’s room and then you talk about what he did in the hallway and then what he did in his room.


Alex: Is that Play-Doh?


(Daddy tells Alex that tomorrow, they’ll watch A Charlie Brown Christmas.)
Alex: A Charlie Brown Chrismas?
Daddy: Yeah. I watched it when I was a little boy, and it’s one of my favorite shows. I really like it.
Alex: I really like it too.
Daddy: Good!
Alex: I'm so excited!
Daddy: What?
Alex: I'm so excited!


Daddy: All right, let's read a book.
Alex: And while you’re reading can you talk about what Charlie Brown did on Charlie Brown – is it Merry Christmas?
