How come China invented so many things?

How do you know China invented so many things?
-Me

Mom, are you sure Lucy will be okay in her crib all by herself?
-Marian
Yes Marian, I'm sure
-Me
well okay...she's YOUR baby!
Mom, I only need 4 band-aids. Aren't you so glad I don't need 6 band-aids?
-Marian...who in fact needed 0 band-aids
(after I suggested we invite Jack's new primary teachers to dinner sometime)
MOM!!!! I already invited them. They don't have any kids yet mom because they just fell in love 11 weeks ago in the St. George Temple!
-Jack
I'm Marian the great!
-Marian
Please bless Thomas (our neglected fish) to have fun swimming in his tank
-Marian during our morning prayers
On! On! On!
(translation: put this on...take this off...open this...close this)

*this next one needs a little set up. I took all the kids to Target to pick up a few things (ie diet coke) for my mom, sisters, sister-in-law, and brother who were coiming to town for a few days.
Can I push the cart mom?
-Jack
Oh I don't think so, we've got such precious cargo in here. Do you know what precious cargo is?
-Me
You mean the diet coke?
-Jack
I'm Marian the mean!
-Marian
Mom, check out my awesome moves to this song
-Jack
My mom is the boss of all the kids, my dad is the boss of his tv.
-Marian...explaining our family's chain of command to a friend
I don't want to do this!!!!!! Ah! I have A LOT of madness!
-Marian
Don't worry mom, I'll still live with you when I am 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, but when I'm 20 I will be on my mission. But then I'll have lots of kids and I will come visit you every day. I won't have too many kids though because that would be a lot for you to take care of. But I bet the girl will help you sometimes.
-Jack
The girl? -Me
Yeah, you know the girl I marry
-Jack
Ma, Ma, MA
(translation: Dad, Dad, Dad)
-Lucy
Mom! We should move to Florida. It has the biggest sunshine of any state.
