Eliza [while playing baseball against the computer on our new Wii (thank you Grandma)]: Show us what your momma gave you!
(she swung and missed)
Eliza: Your momma sure gave you somthin'!

A few days ago I stumbled upon Eliza playing with her Barbies. She hasn't had a male doll and she got some paper dolls for Christmas including some princes. So, I find her with two female Barbies making out.
Me: Eliza, why are those girls kissing?
Eliza: They love each other.
Me: Are they married?
(For Eliza, our discussions about marriage have been the right to kiss on the lips; we explained Grandma and Grandpa's divorce by saying they couldn't kiss each other anymore.)
Eliza: Yeah, to him.
Me: They're both married to him?
Eliza: No, all three of them.
Me: He has three wives.
Eliza: Yep.
Apparently, for some children, polygamy is just intuitive. And the sexual relationships within that marriage are, oh, flexible.
