Conversations with a 4 year old

We were in Target this afternoon and I had a couple of minutes with the older kids to buy Grant a little Father's Day gift from them.

Me
: "I was thinking we could get Daddy a big bag of M&M's" (something he had suggested)
Corban: (with an unimpressed look) "That's a dumb gift."
Me: "What do you mean? Don't you like M&M's?"
Corban: "Yeah, but you get them for him, I wanna get him something else."

A few minutes later, as we were headed out of the parking lot.....(it's nearly 6:00)
Corban: "What are we doing for dinner?"
Grant: "Mommy's cooking dinner."
Corban: "Why don't we stop at McDonalds?"
Grant: "Because Mommy is going to cook."
Corban: "McDonalds is faster."
Grant and me: Laughing..."Well, that's definitely true."
Corban: "What is Mommy going to cook?"
Me: "Cajun Chicken Pasta" (one of Grant's and my favorites)
Corban, very emphatically: "That's not food."
