I heart the backseat conversations

On the way home from school today:

Buddy: We had a birthday party today. It was Maddy's birthday!
Pookie: We had a birthday party, too!
Buddy: Whose birthday was it?
Pookie: Isabella's. We ate doughnuts.
Buddy: Oh, we had cookies with icing.

(Pause)

Buddy: Hey, I had an Isabella in my class last year. I wonder if it's the same girl in your class?
(Neither of them realizing that this is impossible)
Pookie: I don't know. Maybe it is.
Buddy: Well, what kind of hair does your Isabella have? Is it curly?
Pookie: Yep.
Buddy (getting a little bit excited): oooh, well, what color is it? Mine was kind of lightish.
Pookie: Well, mine has DARK curly hair.

(Pause)

Buddy: Well, maybe she colored it.
