A week or two ago...
Mommy:  Who do you want to invite to your birthday party?
Ellie:  All da girls but none of da boys.
Mommy:  Why not the boys?
Ellie:  Well we can invite Michael and Charlie but not da odder boys.
Mommy:  Why is that?
Ellie:  Because the other boys chase me and I don't like it.
Mommy:  Oh.  I see.  Did you know that when boys like a girl, they tease you?  So chasing you is their way of saying they like you.
Ellie:  Why?
Mommy:  I have no idea.  That's just the way boys are.
A week or so later...
Ellie:  What's wrong Mommy?
Mommy:  (with a smile on my face) Oh, Daddy is just teasing me and he won't stop.
Ellie:  Dat's how he's your friend!
Mommy:  Oh?
Ellie:  Yeah, he can not stop teasing you because he likes you.
