This is the first time I'm away from the kids for a 16-day work trip. We skyped every or every other day.
The just-turned-8-yr-old: Mom, I miss you lots.
Mom: I miss you too! I haven't had someone to kiss for so long.
8-yr-old: Kiss yourself!
--------------
10-yr-old: Fashion to me is elegant dresses that have silk ruffles on the bottom, and when you want to you can take it off and put on agile clothes you can run in. They can't have too many sequins or ruffles. They have to be easy to put on, and be made with the best material like mud silk.
--------------
Q: What makes you happy?
8-yr-old: Mom!
(Mom: You're not happy when mommy tells you to do things.)
10-yr-old: Remember that image of a girl using a chalk to draw a mother on the ground and she lay in the middle of it? I wish all orphans in this world can find good parents.
--------------
The 8-yr-old burst into tears when 10-yr-old commented he liked purple smoothies.
Mom: What's the best way to respond to her teasing?
8-yr-old: Tape her mouth.
--------------
Q: What kind of person would you like to become?
10-yr-old: a famous marine biologist that discovers a way for humans to breath under water; have two children and a husband. The children are twins, one boy and one girl who get along well though sometimes squabble. I would like to be a famous scientist and teach students about the ocean. I would retire early and live in a cozy little cottage by the ocean and the forest. I would also like to travel around the world. I would be a confident, brave, strong, and athletic person.
