Flawed counting

George was doing his push-ups and Gwenchik volunteered to help count.

Gwen: One, two... four.
George (breathing heavily) I already did seven!!
Gwen: Ok, ok -- let's start over again.

Little show off

On a playground in Moscow talking with a boy and his Mom:
Gwen: So in what country do you like to live in and what language is your favorite?
Boy: Russia, and of course, Russian -- why? (the boys was really surprised by the question, probably doesn't get many like this one)
Gwen: Well, I am just visiting Moscow, but I live in Boston and speak both Russian and English!
Boy's Mom: How lovely! So where do you like it best in Moscow or Boston?
Gwen: To be honest, in Toronto, Canada --- there are museums, swimming pools, etc....
