Overheard

Conversation overheard in the back seat (using their usual dramatic pretend voices)

 (sad/concerned voices)
Kerri: "Where is my father?"

Emma Lee: "I'm sorry, but he's dead."

Kerri: "Where? Show me."

Emma Lee: "I can't. He's buried. I can't un-bury him."

Kerri: "Why? Is it glued buried?" [quick pause] (happy/excited voice) "Do you want some pie?!"

Emma Lee: "Of course!!"

Kerri: "PRESTO! My dress is magic - it makes pie!"

I love to listen in on their pretend world, and it cracks me up how quickly they jump from one scenario to the next.
