October 26: (while out at Oktoberfest) Daddy, I’ll make you a deal. We either go get a pretzel now or we go home.
December 5: I don’t have homework! *pauses* Yes I do! I have to play with trucks so so hard!
December 6: I must be old. (Me: Why?) Because I’m sick! Because I make crazy sounds!
January 2: (Me: Who’s that?) Grandma! *pauses* I didn’t expect to see you here!
January 2: (while I was taking Christmas decorations down) You’re not supposed to stand on that ladder. (Me: Why not?) Because you’re a girl.
January 3: I can’t get that train. Oh dammit God! (Super.)
January 5: (while looking at a neighbor’s Christmas lights) What the heck? Only one column is lit! What the heck?
January 7: (Grandma: What did you do in school today, Riley?) I suspect I don’t remember.
January 18: Rory’s life is yucky. (Me: Why is Rory’s life yucky, Buddy?) Because he has spit-up.
January 20: (while on I-10 passing the Crystal Preserves sign) That’s the baby Jesus sign! *pauses* With a chef on it!
January 21: (while stopped at the ATM) Daddy puts the monies in and Mama takes them out! (Awesome.)
January 28: (after coming in having spent less than 5 minutes outside on Sneaux Day) (Me: Were you just cold or were you a little bit scared?) I was a little bit scared. I was farting. The snow might blow into my eyes. (Me: That doesn’t make any sense.) Yes it does. Mama, yes it does!
Oh my Riley-bean. You never stop making me smile.

Always my favorite post. I am practically falling off my chair, laughing at some of his remarks. Thanks for chronicling these priceless words, Courtney.
Priceless, indeed. Such a smart, crazy kid,
Yes, It is amazing what Riley says- I love it. Hugs, Grams
Snow has the same effect on me...
