NOT EQUIVALENT

At bedtime:

Dad: Ellery have you brushed your teeth yet?

Ellery: No, but I am making my own time capsule.

THERE'S A LOT YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT ME

Dad was reading The Voyage of the Dawn Treader to Ellery. They were at her favorite part with the Dufflepuds.

Dad: So the Dufflepuds were kind of like the wizard's servants.

Ellery: You mean his minions?

Dad (taken aback): I guess so.

Ellery: I was a minion once.

Dad: You were?

Ellery (shaking her head slowly at the memory): It's a long story.

WHAT DANE SAYS

Liz to her two-year-old son Dane: Dane, can I have a kiss?

Dane: No!

Liz: Why not?

Dane: Because that is not how I roll.
