At dinner, Juma cuddled up to me and said, "I love you, Mom." I hugged him and said I loved him too. Then Justin decided to tease a little:
Justin: I love her more than you do.
Juma: You do not!
Justin: Uh-huh. I love you four times. How many times do you love her?
Juma: Um...five times! I love her to fill the biggest ocean.
Sarah: Which is the biggest?
Juma: The Atlantic.
Sarah: No, the Pacific.
Juma: [to Justin, triumphantly] Yeah, the Pacific!
Justin: I love her as hot as the sun.
Juma: I love her...as...mushy...as...gas!
Justin & Sarah: [laugh]
Sarah: [to self] This is going on the blog.
Juma: I love her as big as a thirty year old.
Justin: I lover her as slimy as octopus juice.
Sarah: [grabs crayon and kids' menu and starts writing these down]
Justin: I love her as smelly as a skunk's bum.
Juma: I love her as smelly as jambas [Swahili for...um...really smelly things]
Everyone: [laugh]
Waitress: [brings the check]
