We live next door to two very cute girls. The youngest is 5, and that girl slays me almost every time.

Last night was no different:

My son (2.5) is sitting on my lap, making wild hand movements while she's leaning in to tell him something. He's being goofy, but goofy leads to smacks on the face - so I said, "HDT, be nice!"

Her response: "Oh, that's okay, HDW. I know TAE KWON DO!!"

I fell off my chair laughing. Of course she doesn't, but it was classic S.

This is the same little girl last year who busted my son eating her sidewalk chalk. She came inside and said to me, "You know, I hate to be the one to break this to you, but HDT is DEFINITELY going to have blue diarrhea in the morning!"
