Crows

Capucine, running back from the garden : Oh Daddy ! I don't like crows. They scare me !
Dad : Oh, they would be more scared of you than you are scared of them.
Capucine *worried face* : But I don't like how they sound. "Crrroaaa ! croooaaa !"
Dad : Yeah, they sound pretty ridiculous too, they don't even know how to sing.

"I make a fuss"

Capucine's Dad was out to dinner with some friends tonight. So, the kids and I were having dinner and Capucine had requested a galette (salty crêpe) with a sunny side up egg inside. As soon as her plate arrived, she started to get picky.
Me : Oooh, Capucine...I made that galette because you specially requested it, so now I would like you to eat it, please.
Capucine : But...I asked with "egg only".
Me : Well, that's "egg only".
Capucine : What about the white thing ?
Me : That's the egg white.
Capucine : Yuuuck.
Me : Oh come on. You love it. You don't really sound like a big 4 years old girl, you know.
Capucine, outraged : What ?! I'm reminding you that I am 4 and a HALF !
Me : Well, you are 4 and a half indeed, but right now you don't sound like you are.
Capucine : BooooHHooooo ! I SHOULD HAVE GONE WITH DA-A-DDYYYY !
Later
Capucine : You know...I make a fuss sometimes. For instance, about the galette.
Me : Yeah, I know.
Capucine : But you forgive me, right ? Because I'm little and because you love me, right ?
Me : Yes.
Capucine : Aaaw, I love you very much, Mom... You're the best Mom in the world...(pause)...But...uhhm...*wrinkles her nose* maybe you should get a haircut.

Capucine : Yeah, but it's for baaaabies.
Me : What about dolls ? You still like playing with them, right ?
Capucine : Naaa. They're for babies too.
Me : Not sure about that. Actually, many girls older than you still play with dolls.
