On the way home...

On the way home from high school group (at around 10 pm), Rory and Claire had an interesting conversation in the back of the van. It went something like this...

Claire: "Apple, apple, apple..."
Rory: "Are you saying apple, Claire?"
C: "Yeah."
R: "We can't have an apple right now."
C: "Why?"
R: "Because we're not doing that... it's night time."
C: "Why?"
R: "Because we're not having food; it's dark outside."
C: "Why?"
R: "Because we need to go to bed, go night night."
C: " Why?"
R: "So we can grow... and become mommies."
C: "Why?"
R: (pause) "I don't know why."
C: "Why?"
R: "I don't know why."
C: "Why?"
R: "I don't know why."
Repeat this about a dozen times.
Rory: "Stop it now."
Silence, then laughter from both girls.
Rory: "Okay, lets do it again. You ask "why?", and I will say, "I don't know why."
And, they do... all the way home.

Oh my word, that is so adorable and reminds me so much of Emma and Chloe. What a blessing that our girls can be so cute together with their sisters :).
