Ainsley is officially 3 1/2 & keeps us laughing with some pretty ridiculous stuff:
Me: "Ainsley, did you rip this book?"
Ainsley: "No, Mommy. I think God did it. I think God made it that way, Mom."
*****
Our neighbor: "Where's your mom, Ainsley?"
Ainsley: "Oh, she's at home with the cleaners because she really can't keep our house clean."
*****
Me to Ainsley's friend Wyatt: "So, Wyatt, what is your favorite thing about Preschool?"
Ainsley interrupting: "---Is it playing with me, Wyatt?"
Wyatt, with a little stammer: "Yes, it is."
Ainsley: "My favorite thing about preschool is playing with you too."
*****
Ainsley: "Mommy, who made us?"
Me: "Ummmm, who do you think made us?"
A: "God."
Me: "Yep, God made us."
A: "Well, how did God make us? Did God just spit us out?"
Me: "Do you think he spit us out?"
A: "Yeah."
Me: "He probably did then."
*****
One of my friends: "Ainsley, what princess do you want to be?"
Ainsley: "I don't want to be a princess, I want to be a doctor."
*****
"Mommy, I lost my balloon & it went up to heaven."
*****
"Mommy, Max is ready for a nap, he's getting wild."
*****
"Mommy, can you get a job today so I can stay for A-Team?" (after-school care)

Ainsley's new-found love for my cooking:
- As I pour pasta into boiling water: "Mommy, I love you. You are a great chef."
- As she eats microwaved Mickey Mouse chicken nuggets: "Mommy, this is a great meal, thank you so much for making it! It is delicious!"
*****
Ainsley's new-found love for her brother:
-"Mommy, I love you & I don't want to throw Max in a trash can." That's reassuring.
-"Max, I love you. I want to keep you FOREVER! I want you to stay with me FOREVER!"
