- Sippycup and his cousins (Cassidy and Chase) are raucously playing in their grandparents' living room -
M.O.M.: "Ok guys! How about we play a quiet game?"
Sippcup: "Like what?"
M.O.M.: "Why don't you guys pretend that you're out camping?"
Sippycup: "Yay! This is awesome!"
Cassidy: "Let's lie down in our sleeping bags!"
M.O.M. (whispering): "But you have to be quiet! You don't want to wake up the bears that are sleeping outside!"
- Chase runs to the window and stares out intently -
Sippycup (whispering): "I love camping!"
Cassidy (whispering): "Me too!"
Chase (turning from the window): "Ain't no bears outside!"
M.O.M. (laughing): "What?"
Chase (quickly glancing out the window before turning back to us): "Ain't no bears gonna eat us! Ain't no bears outside!"
Me (turning to the M.O.M.): "Fantastic. You've traumatized our nephew."
One of my favorite moments EVER. And for the record he made sure to ask the next day if there were any more bears at Nina's house!
