Claire: I don't wanna be a grown-up.
Daddy: You don't wanna be a grown-up?  Wh -- did someone say you have to be a grown-up?
Claire: I don't wanna be a grown-up 'cause then I won't have fun.

Daddy: What did you guys do at school today?
Alex: It was just boring.
Daddy: Claire, how 'bout you?
Claire: Um, I went outside.
Daddy: Yeah?
Claire: Um -- um… after nap we went outside?
Daddy: Yeah?
Claire: Um… um… I made a crown, and it's still at school.  Drawing -- drawing -- draw -- drying, I think.  And, they put out centers -- there was Play-Doh, I think -- and, there was circuses, and… um… um… um…
Claire: And -- and, um, I think there was Legos too.
Daddy: Yeah?
Claire: Uh-huh.  Um… and, uh… I… um… we read, some stories.  And, we got a snail book?  Uh-huh.  We left -- we already left the snail book at school.  And we got it today.  And when I was outside, um Mommy, came and picked me up.

Alex: Nn-nn.
Claire: I do.

Claire: Mommy, there's a bug in here.
Daddy: What's its name?
(Claire pauses for a minute, then giggles.)
Daddy: What do you think its name is?
Claire (smiling): I don't know.  I guess it's Bug.
(Claire shrugs.)
