There is no such thing as a typical conversation with Esther. But here is a sample of a typically random conversation we had today on the bus. I only wish I could remember all the interesting things she says every day.

Esther: Mommy, I just looked out the window.
Me: What did you see?
Esther: A bee.
Me: Where was it going?
Esther: He was going to his hive.
Me: Where is his hive?
Esther: Over there.
Me: What do bees do in their hives?
Esther: They make honey and gather honey and put it in bottles to take to the store.
Me: Who takes the bottles to the store?
Esther: The bees do.
Me: How many bees does it take?
Esther: Three. They fly it there.
Me: Do the bees have the bottles in their hives?
Esther: Yes
Me: How do the bees get the bottles?
Esther: A person brings them.
Me: Who?
Esther: I do.
Me: How did you get that job?
Esther: Razy showed me how. (Razy is just another one of the many names she makes up hourly.)
Me: Do you do it for free or do they pay you?
Esther: They pay me.
Me: How much?
Esther: Four and a half dollars.
Me: Can I get that job?
Esther: No, you’re too big to go in a hive.
