Me: [Long pause] Daddy?
Lil Bro: Yeah.
Me: Your Dad?
Lil Bro: Yup.

Lil Bro: I know.

This is my mom:

Lil Bro: Your mom got a new car.
Me: Cool. What's it look like?
Lil Bro: Just say it's purple. When you see her, it's purple.
Me: It's purple?
Lil Bro: No. it's kind of blue.
Me: [Long Pause]
Lil Bro: But tell her it looks purple. And mid-sized. It's a purple, mid-sized car.
