JFF... Whats Some Funny Stuff Your Kids Has Said This Week?

What was the funniest thing your kids said this week, so far? My 2 year old for the first time (that I heard) in the mall today told my 3 year old " so whateveeer" like a teenager, I had to do a double take... My 3 year old came into my room when she was supposed to be asleep and told me that she needed to buy some letters from the post lady so she could send to the tooth fairy, so she can come get her teeth... My first response was "baby, we don't buy letters" my second response was "who do you know uses the phrase post-lady?" ...
