Sad Books Say So Much

Payton: Are you lesbian?

Me: o_O Do you know what that means?

Payton: Yeah, it's, like, a culture.

Me: ... Payton, do you mean Lebanese?

Payton: Oh, yeah!  That's it!

Payton: Julia, your keychain perfectly describes you. You're, like, wicked smart!

Then, later that day...

Zach: Aren't the Backstreet Boys dead?

(Way to keep me balanced, guys.)

Me: So, on Halloween how about I pick you up from school in my Dinosaur costume?
Payton and Zach: OMG NOOOOO PLEASE NOOOO JULIA NOOOOO.
Me: What's that? Yes? Okay, good. I'm excited, too.

Oh my goodness, the kids I babysit are just too much.
