moreso heard than seen - abridged version - malik

after malik said something untrue:
me - "malik, stop lying."
malik - "i'm not lying! my nose is not growing!"
yeah, we just got Pinocchio and it's his favorite right now.

while malik was sitting at the table eating lunch:
malik - "Dora and Boots were in outer space and they went through the Milky Way and they went over the rocks (asteroids) and the purple planet and they were in a rocket."
me - "really!? what else did they do?"

seen - malik running up the stairs after a trip to the pool with faith and dad:
malik - "mommy, i drowned!" looking all happy.
me - "what do you mean? you went under? what happened?"
malik - "i was in the lifeguard thing (lifeguard ring floaty thing) and then i let go."
me - "did you go underwater like a fish?"
malik - "no, like a dolphin."

malik, after brushing his teeth:
"look, mom. i did a very good job brushing my teeth. see, there's no more plaque."
