Setting: Driving to daycare, Jason Aldean Big Green Tractor, Blaring on the radio:
Em: Mom, I want to be the back up singer for this guy.
Me: Okay, you better start memorizing the lyrics then. And you need to sing louder.
Em: And maybe sometimes, he could be my back up singer and I could just sing it. Its good to share sometimes.

Setting: Driving home from lunch on the birthday day:
Em: Mom, next time we go to Subway for lunch can I bring my backpack?
Me: Sure, but what will you put in it?
Em: I think I'll bring some books. You were kind of boring at lunch. If I had a book, I'd have something to do.
Me: Thanks, Em. Love you back....

Setting: Driving home from daycare the other day:
Em: Mama, I'm feeling a little sad.
Me: What's wrong baby girl?
Em: I'm sad because Daddy loves his chickens more than me.
Me: MmmmHmmm.....welcome to my club sister. (cough) I mean, of course he loves you more than his chickens. Remember how he ate that chicken last year because it was crowing so loud.....He'd never eat you. That's love right there.
Ah, the love. It is overwhelming ;)
