Dorothy: Mom, this cupcake has hard icing, but most cupcakes have soft icing.
Sarah: Yes, that's a Hostess Cupcake, and they always have hard icing and that little swirl.
(Time passes.)
Dorothy: Mom, this Hostess Cupcake has some white gooey stuff inside!

The Sunday Funnies
We went to a trunk-or-treat and came home with a bag of candy. Dorothy dumped her candy on the floor and started putting it in little piles. Then she said, "Ms. Candace says you can sort anything."
Dorothy is being moved to a new class at school. I told her, "Do you remember that you're moving to Ms. Mary's class on Monday? They might even move your cubby." Dorothy said, "They don't move the cubby. They just move the name."
Dorothy had $1.07 in change and we went to the Dollar Store to spend it on one item and tax. She brought her toy to the check-out and dumped-out her money. A nickel must have been stuck in the bottom of her change purse. The cashier said, "I need another nickel." Dorothy stood still, looked at her expectantly, and stated factually, "It's missing."

The Sunday Funnies
We were playing Go Fish. Dorothy is still learning the names of the suits. She drew a card and told me, "I have the Queen of Shamrocks and the Queen of Sparrows!"
Dorothy still adds an -er to words to indicate their function. She has a toy doctor kit and needle, and she refers to the shot as the "shot-er".
In the early morning I told Dorothy that I was going to sing to Daddy, which happened to be in my throaty morning voice. Dorothy said, "You don't have to sing in Daddy's voice. You should sing in your own."
The waitress delivered the bill after we went to dinner, and the credit card fell to the floor. Dorothy looked for it under the table and when she didn't see it she announced in the restaurant, "Our poor, poor credit!"
Dorothy was taking a bath, and I couldn't reach something in the bathroom. I gave a frustrated, growling, grumpy sound. Dorothy said, "Don't make that bad noise. My dad will think I'm in trouble."
