Never...Forever

Elina's starting to use words that I don't expect her to use. It always catches me by surprise.

Story 1:
My friend F is visiting with her daughter, K, for the week. After Elina and K played in the baby pool outside, F went to give K a bath.

Elina: Where's K?
Me: Her mommy is giving her a bath.
Elina: But why?
Me: Because she played in the pool. You played in the pool, too. Do you think you need a bath?
Elina: [shaking her head and walking away] No, I don't think so....never.

Story 2:
We ordered Rudy's bbq for dinner and Elina didn't like any of it, so I gave her some mac 'n cheese. As she's eating it, she happily says, "I want to eat mac 'n cheese...forever!"
