One Minor Problem

Luke, to whom Lily addressed this note, cannot read.

Mr. Lucas

Me - "Trevor Bannister died."
Mom - "Who?"
Me -  "Trevor Bannister, 'Mr. Lucas.'"
Mom - "Oh! I didn't recognize the name straight away."
Me - "Is he the last to go? No, isn't Capt. Peacock still alive?"
Mom -  "I don't know. But Mollie Sugden died and I know John Inman did as well."
Me - "You're right. Ages ago, right?"
Mom - "Recently, I think. Last few years for both, I'm almost positive."
Me - "Really? It seems like it wasn't that recent."

Ten seconds of Google skill work.

Me - "You're right. This says Inman died in 2007 and Sugden in 2009."
Mom: - "That's what I thought. And Miss Brahms died a couple of years back."
Me - "Who was I thinking of that died a while ago, then?"
Ella (age 6 1/2) - "Abraham Lincoln."

What's my name?

Luke (age 3 1/2) - "No, she's Annabella Victoria Robbins!"
Me - "Yes, that's her full name. What's yours?"
Luke - "Lukey!"
Me - "No, your full name, like 'Sophie Leigh Robbins' is Sophie's."
Luke - "Lukey! L-U-K-E!!!"
Me - "No, your middle name as well. Just like 'Lillian Rayne' is Lily's."
Luke - "Oh. Boogerface. Lukey Boogerface."

Breakfast

Ella (age 4 1/2) - "I shoulda cooked this."

To Do

Ella (age 6 1/2) left me a To Do list.

NASCAR

(During a SportsCenter segment on NASCAR) 

Lily (age 7) - "Car racing? What is this crap?!?!"

Old Lady

Ella (age 4) - "When you were a kid what did they call you?"
Me - "Ruth."
Ella - "That's an old lady name."
