conversations...

Isaac (with great excitement): Mommy! I'm in checkmate, and Carly only got one of my pieces!

(He was really proud of himself.)

Carly: You could've got my queen with your bishop, but you just gave up. And you didn't see it.

-------------------------------------------------

Carly: Mommmmyyyyy!!! Isaac's being contraryyyy!!!!

Isaac: I am not!

(Later...)

Carly: Mommmmyyy, Isaac's still being contrary!!

Isaac: No I'm not!!!

--------------------------------------------------

(Playing more chess...while Carly creams Isaac)

Isaac: I'm gettin' stinkin' tired of it!
