Lucy: Did you know that my favorite colors are red and blue? They're not purple and pink like I tell people.
Me: Oh really? Well, your favorite colors can be anything you want. You really don't have to tell people you like a color just because they do.
Lucy: I know, but Molly really loves purple and pink and I don't want to hurt her feelings.
Me: Oh, well, that's nice.
Lucy: Do you think maybe I should be honest with her and just tell her?
Me: Yeah, I think that would be fine. I'm sure she won't mind.
Lucy: Okay. I'm going to tell her.
Me: Great!
Lucy: When we're teenagers, probably.
Lucy: I wish I were an alligator. I would love to live under water.
Me: That would be neat.
Lucy: Yeah, but I would probably just eat fish and not people.
Me: Good idea. You could be a friendly alligator. But how would people know you were friendly?
Lucy: I'd try to get a spot at the zoo, probably. Those animals are all friendly. And then I'd just lay on the sand and wave at people.
Me: Fantastic idea.
Lucy: Or maybe I'll just work at the zoo and visit with alligators instead. I'd like to be a monkey trainer.
Me: That would be so cool - could I come visit you? I've always wanted to pet a monkey!
Lucy: There is no way I'm going to let you in. If I break the rules for you, I'll have to break the rules for everyone.
