Setup: Shortly after arriving at work, I get an "I miss daddy" phone call from Melanie (3).
Melanie: I still love you but... why aren't you home?
Great use of but. Later in the same call (and seemingly out of nowhere)...
Melanie: Some people are in heaven... but Grama Mona made Raggedy Ann.
Jen later got a turn on the phone and explained the context (a discussion that eventually meandered to listing some people in heaven, Melanie suggested Grama Mona, Jen informed her this wasn't the case and tried to remind Melanie who Grama Mona is), but still 2 adorable uses of but.
