dad to mom, referring to my nephew's lovebirds...

dad:  'there's another egg...  two now...  and they're so small...'

mom:  'uh-huh...'

dad:  'they're really small...  <tries to locate a small slice in the bowl of caramelized bananas>...  smaller than this...'

mom:  'oh...'

dad, still sounding amazed:  'they're maybe just half the size of quail eggs...  so small really...'

mom, chuckling:  'of course!  you don't really expect them to produce eggs the size of chickens'...'
