Bathtime

We have a rule about mama's bathtime.  Caitlyn can come in the bathroom, but she has to be quiet.
Tonight I was having a bath, and Caitlyn said something very quietly, I couldn't hear her, so I asked her to repeat herself.  
She said, "Mama, you can't have a book in the bath!"
So, I explained that grown ups were allowed to bring books in the bath.
She stood quietly beside the bath for 2 minutes (which is a long time when you're 2!), and then she whispered, "Mama, how's your bath going?"

The Park

We drove past a park about 30 minutes away from our house the other day.
Caitlyn:  When I am 3, I will go to that park all by myself.
Mama:  How will you know the way?
Caitlyn:  I will get lost.  I will say "Mama, Papa, I'm lost" and you will come and help me find the park.

After Visiting the Pet Store

Mama: What was your favorite animal at the pet store?
Caitlyn:  The rampsters, they were so cute.  I will take care of them, so they will not bite me.  They will stay in the cage, at the pet store, okay?
