Chase: Is my hammer a weapon? Will I get in trouble?
Me: It's plastic, it's deflated, it's OK.
Chase: Are you sure the police won't get mad at me?
He has a healthy fear of the police
A couple of weeks ago one of our neighbor's houses got toilet papered.
Chase: Mommy, Danesh & Nahib (our 13 year old neighbor twins) said that they didn't clean up the TP because the police are going to come over.
Me: OK
Chase: Mommy, I touched the TP, will the police see my fingerprints and think it's me?
Me: No, because your fingerprints are in only one place.
Chase: Actually Mommy, I touched the TP in two places.
Me: It's ok, two places is fine. Besides I know that you didn't TP their house.
Chase: (looking relieved) I know, but I don't want anyone to think I did.
Very healthy fear of the police, lol.

Riley likes to put on a purse and wave goodbye. She loves waving at birds, dogs, lawn mower people and truck drivers. She goes out of her way to catch their eye while she's waving. Pretty cute!
