Here’s another Cam Says / Demi Says, but holy smokes, this one was a doozy. Let’s start with that one…
Me to both Cam and Demi: do you know how much I love you both?
D: I o’ know (how she says I don’t know)
Me: A lot.
D: Seven?
Me: Way more.
D: Hundred?
Me: Way more.
C: Like a million hundred, ninety eight hundred, ninety eight?
Me: Yeah, more like that.
C: But you wouldn’t want to count to that many. It would take a long time.
Me: I agree, that wouldn’t be fun.
C: Yeah, by the time you get to that number, you’d be gone.
Me: oh?
C: Yeah, you’d be up there. [Gestures to the sky]
Me: Oh. Hmm. Probably….

Demi was sitting on the counter while I made her breakfast. When I opened the fridge to get out the peanut butter and jelly, I said, “Woah, the fridge is stinky!”
Demi said, “brother poop in it?”

Demi then said, “brother toot?”

A few days ago I handed Demi a wipe and asked her if she would wipe off her mouth and hand.
She responded sternly with a slight smile, “No mommy, me no wipe my mouth and hands!”
Surprised, I said, “Excuse me, where did this attitude come from?”
She replied, “My mouth!”

Last thoughts from Cam before falling asleep at bedtime:
Do rainbows only happen when there’s rain and sunshine at the same time?
Does this… [uses his finger to draw a question mark in the air]… mean a mystery?
