Me: Betay, put on your slippers. Your nose is running.

Solom (grabbing nose): It's okay MAMA. I've CAUGHT it.

On reproduction

Conversation between Solom and me this morning.

Me (pointing at my pregnancy picture): Look, Solom, you were here in Mama's stomach, see?

Solom: *staring*

Me: See how big Mama's stomach is? You were in it, see?

Solom (looking devastated, practically wringing hands): MAMA I THINK that you did not chew me, you only SWALLOWED me.
