Star (age 9) and I sitting at dinner --
Star: Dada, can I ask you a question?
Me: Of course you can.
Star: Why is Mama an Ignoramus?
Me: [holding back a laugh] What do you mean?
Star: I mean, why is she such a Jackwagon?
Me: [still holding back a laugh] What do you mean by that?
Star: I mean, why is she such a Jerkface?
Me: [unsuccessfully trying to hide the laughter now] What's making you ask that?
Star: Well, I know it's because she's a Marshall, but....
Me: [now not even trying to hide the laughter] Brenda, you should come in here.
I recount to Brenda what just happened. She starts laughing and gives Star a little grief over it all.
Brenda: What made you ask all that?
Star: [starts laughing] I just wanted to jack you up.
We have the coolest family!
