First

Madelyn: A staring contest is when you keep your eyes open and don't blink.
Alyson, blinking repeatedly: That's what I am doing!
Madelyn: No, keep your eyes open!
Alyson: Let's have a blinking contest. Whoever blinks first wins!

Second

Part of the joy of having a potty-trained three-year-old is having to go in and wipe her after she goes potty. I walked into the bathroom, where Alyson was sitting on the toilet waiting for me, to find her holding her leg up and kissing all over her leg. I just look at her and she says, "I'm kissing me everywhere!"
