Claire-isms

While the kids were playing with the Egyptian Playmobil, this is what I overheard:

Claire - Cleopatra was very beautiful.

Willliam - Is she still alive?

Claire - No, she died a long time ago. Now she's all covered with white stuff and looks like beef jerky.

When I asked Claire how we could save money, this was her reply:

Claire - We could buy a lantern and move to Texas overnight.

Me - How would that save us money?

Claire - I don't know, I've just always wanted to do that.

Concerning Claire's bus driver:

Claire - She's really mean. She talks to us like we're monkeys.

Me - Monkeys?

Claire - Yeah. Idiot monkeys.
