this morning at breakfast our conversation went something like this:

franny: the ferris wheel is the FAIREST wheel.
me: oh really? what was your favorite ride at the MOA?
franny: the merry go round!
me: what? i thought you liked the log ride the best?
franny: no, i was scared i was gonna fall out!
me: but you didn't though, and that is half the fun, being scared.
gus: i didn't go on the log ride, i was to thcary.
franny: gus, you're too little to go on the log ride
gus: no i'n not, i'n a big boy now.

yes gus, yes you are.
