I have a good brain.

Alex (to Daddy): You’re soon gonna be a grandpa, because you’re getting old.


(Dinner. Alex wants to say grace.)

Alex: I'm really excited for this food we're gonna eat. We made some of it. Pause. Imen.
Claire: I hope we like much the food. I hope we like the food Mommy made.
Alex: Grace.


(getting ready for bed)
Mommy: I know, you guys are tired.
Claire: I'm not tired.
Mommy: I thought you said you were.
Claire: All the sudden, I'm not tired.


Mommy: Okay, put it on the thing.
Alex: Bookshelf.
Mommy: Bookshelf. I forgot the word. Does that ever happen to you?
Alex: Nope. I have a good brain.
(Mommy laughs.)
Mommy: Are you implying I don't have a good brain?
Alex: No. You have a good brain. I like it.
