(Educational note: a quetzal is a kind of long-tailed bird.)
Mommy: Can you 'caw' like a quetzal?
Sam: Quetzals don't caw - they say, "Can I have some bird food?"
*sage nod*
Sam:...they can't say 'please'.

When we sing Sam lullabies, we wrap him up in one of his blankets. Some nights, even trying to pick which blanket can be a struggle. Tonight, Julie said, "We're using your green blanket."
"No, mama, the red one," came the inevitable reply.
"We'll use the red one tomorrow night," she came back snappily.
Sam sighed, rolled his eyes, and said with a long-suffering tone, "Why do you have to do this every night, mama?"
