"Mommy, you just spit on me!"

Pointing to blemish on my face while in long line at grocery checkout:
"Mommy, how did you get that big booboo on your face?"

In public restroom with line going out the door (as all women's rooms are):
"Who stunk up the place! Did you POOOOP Mommy?"

My 7 year old is a red head. Like a shiny penny. I should have named her "Penny". My 5 year old is a dark blonde with big whopping blue eyes. Tonight, I was giving them both their medicine and the 5 year old dark blonde haired one said to me "Mommy, I remember having this medicine before with Daddy." And I said "oh, when you weren't feeling well?" and she said "yeah, a long time ago, when I had red hair."
She somehow thinks she once had red hair.

My 5 year old loves to draw and do crafts, as does my 5 year old. But when the 7 year old is at school, the five year old gets the crafts to herself.
Lately, I have been noticing small pieces of cut up colored-on pieces of paper, all over the house. Sometimes in piles. Sometimes in bowls. Sometimes blown all over the place.
I finally asked her what the heck it was, (other than trash) and her response was
"THAT'S MY SALAD!"

The other day, my 7 year old came to me with a broken plastic toy. It is one of those toys that really cant be fixed, at all. She started out asking me for the stapler.
"No honey, a stapler won't work on plastic."
I did try glue, super glue, but it kind of dissolved the plastic, so I cleaned it off and told her it wasn't strong enough, despite it being "super".
She asked for scotch tape.
I say, "Scotch tape isn't strong enough, it won't hold it together, I am sorry, I think we might have to throw this toy away".
She thinks for a moment.
"Break out the duct tape!"
How the heck does my 7 year old know about duct tape?
