Mommy, why does everybody want to steal his girl? ~ baby J
What? ~ me
In the song, he sings everybody wanna steal my girl…why do they want to steal her? Baby J, about a song on the radio.
Oh…I think it just means that everybody likes his girl. ~ me
Well. If somebody try to steal my girl, I will stab them wif my sword. ~ baby J
Who is your girl? ~ me
You are, mommy! ~ baby J. Awww.

Do you know any ninjas, daddy? ~ little M
She’s not my best friend… ~ little M
Why is she not your best friend? ~ baby J
She pulled on my arm too hard, and it hurt me. ~ little M
She hurt you?! ~ baby J
Just a little. Â ~ little M
I will put her in a box, and tape up the box, and put it in the water. I will save the day for you, jie jie! ~ baby J
Well, I don’t think we need to drown her… ~ little M
