Goodnight talk
Me : You know, Capucine, there are a many people around the world who saw you telling your fairy tale on their computers. And many of them told me I was lucky to have you.
Capucine : Really ? They said that you were lucky to have me ? Wow. So, this means...they love me ?
Me : I guess so :)
Capucine : Wow. The entire world loves me ? Wow.
Me : Haha, well, maybe not the entire world, though !
Capucine : Oh yes, you're right. It can't be the entire world, because not all of them have a computer.
Me : Hahaha ! Oh, Capucine... I love you...
Capucine : I love you too, Mom.

Bad loser
The kids were playing Uno, and Capucine did not want to lose.
Aliocha : Capucine, you're cheating ! Stop it !
Capucine, crying : bbbboooooohhhh !! but I wanna wiiiiiin !!!
Me : Capucine, there are rules for games, and if you don't want to follow them, then nobody will want to play with you. It's ok to lose for once, you can't win all the time.
Capucine : booooooohooo but when I lose, my tummy hurts !
Me : well, it shouldn't hurt. And you shouldn't cry because of this either. It's not worth it. Look : do I cry when I lose a game ?
Capucine : No. But that's because you're a grown up !

A lesson
Me : You've been such a big girl today. You helped me cut the apples for the cake, you cleaned up your room without being asked, you ate well...
Capucine : Yeah, but I wish I was big enough to be able to read stories.
Me : But you can invent stories, and that's even better ! I can read, but I don't know how to do that. I wish I could invent stories too.
Capucine : Wait, I'm going to teach you. So, there was this kangaroo, he was lost in the forest. And he saw a biiiiig tree, with branches like arms, and pointed ears, and he was sooooo scared. See ? This is how you do it. Will you remember ?
