Adjust your brain

Jack, while getting dried off after the shower, "Daddy, stop. I need to adjust your brain." Jack puts his hands on the sides of Drew's head and says "doot, doot, doot", while making kid-strength chiropractic adjustments. "There. Much better."

super powers

from March 1, 2011
Jack, in an admiring tone: Elijah has lasers in his eyes and he can see at night. Tyler can lift up houses and cars.
Drew: Well what super powers do you have?
Jack: I can't do anything special. I can't lift buildings or anything.
Drew: I'll bet you can do things Elijah and Tyler can't do.
Jack: No. Not really. Maybe when I'm bigger.
Tara: Like when you are 4 on March 10?
Jack: No. Probably when I'm 5 like they are.

Melancholy

from February 4, 2011
Jack, while arranging his stuffed animals in his bed before going to sleep: I'm putting red panda in the front. He hasn't been in the front in years and he's so melancholy.
As Drew and Tara laugh, Jack: It's not funny! It's not nice to laugh at people's sad feelings.
