V- I am not even famous. I am not even meant to draw.
M talking about her science fair project- He ( a random father) said it was radical and righteous. I guess he doesn't know words from this century.

V, when we saw his friend's babysitter with another kid- Is she trying new things?
A on tía A- What is her job?
Me- She works for the DA.
A- What's that?
Me- Lawyers for the government.
A- Wait, what? I thought she made movies! What's so cool about being a lawyer?
Me- Ask her.
A- What's the government?

A when I told her my grandmother died- No she didn't. (I then repeated myself and so did she).
V when I told her (through a burst of tears)- Are her red blood cells not working anymore?...
I only met her twice!....Does she still love you?
