Car Conversations

Once we get past the hassle of bundling kids and strapping them in, I love car rides with the family!  In our small, confined capsule of the minivan there is a little bit of everything- singing, giggling, teasing, games, and lots of conversations.  Lately, my favorite thing is to just listen to the chatter and conversation between 3 little voices in the back.  Here's an example from last night:

Elaina:  "Owen?".... pause... silence... "O-win?!".... more silence... "O-WIN-UH!!!"" (because adding extra syllables to words and the "uh" sound at the end seems especially effective)
Owen:  "Elaina, can you please stop talking?  Can't you see I'm trying to daydream?"
