Terrible

Zach: Can I play PBSkids.org?

Betsy: No.

Zach: Mom, now you sound like YOU have the terrible two's.

Betsy: Huh?

Zach: You're always saying 'No'.

Beautiful

Betsy, to Katie, who's been musing about lipstick:

Betsy: Little girls are all too beautiful to wear lipstick.

Zach: Well, so are you, Mom.

Betsy: Well, that's good, because I'm not wearing any.

Zach: Yeah, because if you were wearing lipstick with that outfit, you'd look ridiculous. If you dress up fancy, then you look beautiful with lipstick.
