Pep in Your Step

Simon: "I like sky-fi books now."
Me: "I like those too, but it's actually pronounced sci-fi."
Simon: "I bet I know what it's short for: sai fight. You know, like those weapons in Japan?"

Simon: "Are you okay? You seem a little out of it."
Me: "I'm okay, just tired."
Simon: "You should get some coffee. It puts pep in your step."

Simon: "I am more of a cat person than a dog person. Cats are more mature. It's the truth."

Simon: "Can I make my own breakfast?"
Me: "Sure!"
Simon: "Do you have any prunes?"
Simon wanted to make a prune, cheese, and mayonnaise sandwich.

Simon was finally brave enough to touch the sting rays at the zoo today. He gasped excitedly when the first one flapped over his hand and said, "It made contact!"
The way he said it made me think of alien movies.
