Today's conversation in the car

Lainey: "Momma, I need my sunglasses.  I can't see the sun."
I hand her the sunglasses that are stuffed in the pocket in back of the driver's seat.
Lainey: "Hey, these are kinda chewed up.  It's because Dunkin is kind of a turd sometimes.  We like him most of the time, but sometimes he's just a turd."
Pause for 2.4 seconds
"And daddy doesn't have any sunglasses.  Why he doesn't have sunglasses, momma?"
Me: "I don't know, but I've urged him many times to get some.  Maybe he'll listen to you if you tell him to get some."
Lainey: "He won't listen to me either, because he's kind of a bad boy.  He gets a frowny face today for being a bad boy for that he didn't listen to me.  And he also hit me with a spatula."
Me: "Daddy didn't hit you with a spatula, goofball.  Are you fibbing?"
Lainey: "..... yes.  He's a good boy.  But still he gets a frowny face because he doesn't have sunglasses."
Me: "Okay, that seems perfectly reasonable to me."
