quote of the day:

Me: (standing in the kitchen trying to make lunch for everyone before we have to be at Ava's five hour ballet practice, while simultaneously answering a million questions and trying to comfort Ian on my hip after he "faww down.")
Ava:  "Mommy, is having two kids pretty hard?"
Me:  (regretfully, not skipping a beat) "Yes."
Ava: "Oh."
Daddy:  (Sensitively noticing the slightest change in her demeanor:) "But you know that you and Ian are the best parts of mommy's life, right?"
Ava: (smiling) "Yes."
Daddy:  "Because if she didn't have you she would be reading on a tropical beach somewhere surrounded by piles of money."
Ava:  "That would be sad."
