Zoe - Mama, Jasmine has the dribbles. (Jasmine is a school friend.)
Me - Jasmine has what?
Zoe - The dribbles.
Me - What does that mean Zoe?
Zoe - Jasmine has the dribbles. She took the dribbles.
Me - What did Jasmine do? She spilled something at lunch?
Zoe - NO!
Me - Is Jasmine sick?
Zoe - NO!
Me - What did Jasmine do Zoe?
Zoe - Jasmine has the dribbles. The dribbles.
Me - Zoe... what are dribbles?
Zoe - You know... the dribbles. I told you.
Me - Zoe, I don't know what you're talking about. What are the dribbles?
Zoe - Mama! You know the dribbles. I told you them. The dribbles. Jasmine has them.
Me - I'm sorry Zoe. I don't know what you're talking about. Are the dribbles food? Or a drink? What are the dribbles?
Zoe - THE DRIBBLES! THE DRIBBLES! I told you them!
Me - Zoe I just don't know what you're talking about. I'm sorry.
Zoe - THE DRIBBLES! YOU KNOW! IN SCHOOL! CHIP AND DALE!
Me - OOOOOOHHHHHHH! The GERBILS! Jasmine took home the class GERBILS.
Zoe - Yes Mama. Jasmine has the dribbles. I told you.
Me - (mumble mumble mumble wine mumble)
Guess who took home the class dribbles the next weekend?
Oh... and this is the cheesy smile I get from Zoe now whenever I want to take a picture.

We had a similar experience with guinea pigs... but they were a little more permanent and a little less cute. Funny blog!
So cute. I had dribbles when I was a kid and I loved them.

Dribbles! Ha...we would like some dribbles around here, too. But we have enough in the form of pets.
And that smile looks awfully familiar around here, too...

I totally thought you were going a different direction with this. As in, dribbles = accident!
