DQ reminded me about the time we watched War of the Worlds for the first time. Maymay was very concerned that they blew up Big Ben for the movie. She kept asking how they could get permission to blow it up for a movie.
Another Maymayism comes to mind...
I remember sitting her down and explaining what a cliche is. I chose walking a mile in someone's shoes. I spent quite awhile teaching her the concept, and making sure I fully explained it. I was pretty proud of myself with my obviously strong and beautifully put together lesson. I asked her if she understood. She looked up at me and said yes, but she would never do it. I was dumbfounded. So, I gritted my teeth and asked her why not. She looked at me and said, "I could never walk a mile in someone's shoes because they might have different feet than me and their shoes would hurt my feet. I don't like my feet to hurt."
When Maymay gets VERY angry she says, "Berry doesn't like you, and I don't either".
