Jackson: Mom, what kind of creature are you?
Me: What kind of creature?
Jackson: Yah. You know - I'm a super-reader, what are you?

Walking through Fred Meyers shortly after Jackson's 4th birthday. Upon passing another shopper, Jackson throws his arms out wide, closes his eyes and sings, "I'm FOURRRRRR!"
I start laughing hysterically. He looks up at me and says, "HEATHER!!"

Jackson was in and out of our bed all night. Kept waking Brian and I up as he would climb up over me and snuggle between us. In the morning I asked why he kept us up all night. He said he was dreaming that I was wrestling an eel in a cage and he was scared.
I won by the way.

Addison has been watching "Pocahontas" repeatedly. Not end to end but she turns it on a lot and so we often see pieces of it through out the day. During one dinner conversation Jackson asked me why John Smith didn't tell the Indians the he didn't shoot Kokopah (the Indian that was killed by Thomas, but John Smith takes the blame to save Thomas' life). - Just thought that was very insightful of Jackson to notice since that is never addressed in the movie.

Jackson: You know what dinosaurs do not do?
Me: What?
Jackson: Save the day.

After taking Jackson's picture at the park . . .
Jackson: Mommy? Send that one to your parents.

After explaining that our adult teeth come in after our baby teeth fall out.
Jackson: So when my little teeth fall out, my big teeth fall in?
Me: yes
Jackson: . . . Mommy? Are real teeth magic?
