What She Said

I don't remember exactly what I said to Lucy a few weeks ago in the kitchen.  She probably asked a question and I probably said something like, "No."
Then she said:  "Oh, my life!"  And she buried her face in her hands.

Today, there was a noise outside the house and she said, "Mom, you hear that monster?"
"No, there are no monsters here."
"No monsters in our home?  That's not fair!"  And she slapped the carpet in dismay.
Weird.
