So I have this running joke where I like to tell the kids I'm going to trade them in on monkeys. As in, "Let's go to the zoo, so I can trade you guys in on a couple of monkeys?" Or, more recently, after the circus...
Me: Hey, did you see those cute little monkeys. There were four of them. I bet I could get a good trade for you guys.
Karenna: No you wouldn't.
Me: I could probably get like two monkeys per kid by weight.
Chris: Monkeys are pretty smart. Maybe you would have to trade in two kids for one monkey.
Me: I thought I'd have to exchange by weight.
Karenna: You can't trade me!
Later this week...
Me: You know I could still trade you in on a monkey if you don't listen.
Karenna: And I could trade you in a gorilla!
