I took off its horns

Tonight I was helping Elaina clean her room.  She loves her toys, and plays almost equally with each one of them.  Unlike the other two kids, who want a toy, that is the newest fad, and it only lasts about... one night. She has always had a deep love for horses, and has a ton of plastic, stuffed, miniature, you-name-it -she's-got-it horse toys.  She was rubbing this little velvet miniature animal on my arm, saying "horsey loves you".  "awww... " I said.  "Thank you".  Then I turned to look at the horse, which more resembled a baby calf, and it had two holes in its head.  "I think it's actually a cow, Elaina"  "I know," she said, "but I took off it's horns, and now I call it a horse".   Good enough, then.

What am I?

Today we were sitting at Taco Cabana eating dinner.  Connor looked at me and asked, "Mom, what am I?"  I said, "What do you mean what are you?"  He replies "Am I Mexican?" (Insert picture of blond haired, blue eyed son here) 

"No, Connor, you are not Mexican."

Only one kid

This afternoon we were sitting on the couch, watching TV and some show with twins came on.   Elaina said to me "I hope when I grow up I don't have two kids"  I giggled, and said "Why?"  she smiled and said "'Cause I don't want to do all that work.  I only want one at a time."

Rainbow underpants

While driving in the car, out of no where, Elaina spouts, "Mom, it takes a real man to wear rainbow underpants."
