Maureen: Mom, look, this is my husband! [Proudly shows me a rectangular-shaped rock that fits in her hand.]
MaShell: Wow, really??
Maureen: Yeah. His name is Gravelin....I mean Rocklin because well, he likes to ROCK MAN!!
Later....Maureen was in the bathtub.
Caroline: Maureen, is that your husband IN THE BATH WITH YOU??? AND HE'S UNDER YOUR BOTTOM?? AND YOU TOOTED ON HIM??
The next morning, Maureen woke up crying. I sat on her bed to see what was wrong and when I sat down, put my hand onto the bed, right onto her husband. She had slept on the 2 in rock all night!

Time Flies
Caroline: Mom, when are you going to take me to look at high schools and colleges? Because, you know time flies.
Birthday Drama
MaShell: Maureen, where are you going?
Maureen: I'm GOING to give out these birthday party invitations, I have to or else no one will come to my birt-day party. [Maureen's teacher said she spent all of her free time today writing out birthday invitations.]
MaShell: Your birthday isn't until February after Valentine's Day, so you have a few months to wait.
Maureen [dramatically putting on clip earrings]: Moooom. Well, when I am older I am simply not going to know you because you will die and I will not.
With that she held her head up high in the air and marched away.
