M: When David and I were doing yoga, we almost got married.

...while driving to school and passing some cows...
M: Whoa, mom, did you see that?
ME: No, what?
M: There is a reindeer among those cows!
ME: I don't think it's a reindeer, babe. We don't have those here.
M: Did you look though?
ME: No, I didn't look.
M: Well, then don't say there isn't one. I looked, and I saw a reindeer.
(On the way home, I pulled over to check out the reindeer, and it turned out to be a big bull. There was no telling Maya otherwise, though; she kept saying: "But look at his antlers!")
