Van: "Butt-cheek! Butt-cheek! Butt-cheek! Butt-cheek!"
Me: "Van stop that."
Van: "But mom, I'm saying 'But' like 'But I just let the dog out'. That kind of but. and then just cheek. Just the two words next to each other. But cheek. But cheek! But cheek! But cheek!"
Esther: "But cheek! But cheek! But cheek!
Me: sigh.

Deep thoughts from Van

Van: "Mom, people are building new things every day huh?"
Me: "Yeah."
Van: "And someone has a birthday every day huh?"
Me: "Yeah that's right."
Van: "And maybe someone is born every day?"
Me: "m-hmh."
Van: "And someone dies every day too?"
Me: "Yeah, that's true."
Van: "And people go to the store every day?"
Me: "Yep."

Van wants to be a scientist. He recently he said he wants to be the kind who mixes things and makes things (like explosions) like Honey Lemon, a character on one of his favorite movies, Big Hero 6.
So that is kind of fun.
