Amelia conversations

Amelia: Well, if you want scrambled eggs, you just have to kill the chickens and take the eggs!
Mama: No, eggs are not inside chickens.
Amelia: Eggs are inside people, right?

(long discussion about human anatomy versus chicken anatomy ensues)



Amelia and William got watches for Christmas.  Both of them have been more aware of the time and we have had many discussions about time recently.  Amelia, in particular, has been fascinated/interested in figuring out this time thing.


Amelia: MOM!  My watch says 6:11, but the clock in the kitchen says 6:13!  Which one is right?


or

Amelia: MOM! My watch is wrong.  Or my clock is wrong?  Why aren't all the clocks in the house on THE SAME TIME?


or

Amelia: It is 8:50.  I know that because my clock says 8:52.  I know that I just need to subtract 2 from the time in my room to get the real time everywhere else.
