This morning I had the nightmare privilege of standing in a rather long line at the local state office. It was packed and the line was well, REALLY long. People were frustrated, children were crying and attitudes were short. I just wanted to make my way through the line without getting stepped on or pushed too much.
And then, the following conversation took place between two 3 year olds; one a girl and one a boy. It continued on even after I left, but the funniest part went something like this:
Little girl sings "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" really loud.
Boy, "I can sing that, too."
Girl, "My mom says I'm cute."
Boy, "My dad says I'm awesome."
Girl, "My mom says I'm the best."
I giggle.
Boy, "I can jump."
Girl, "I can jump higher."
I giggle again.
Girl, "Have two dogs. I have poodles."
Boy, "I have a really big dog, Shadow."
I'm laughing out loud now.
Girl, "I have a baby." (She was holding a doll.)
Boy, "I have a real baby. He's David. Do you want him?" (His baby brother was sitting next to him.)
Girl just sort of looks at him. I am hysterical now, as well as the rest of the waiting room. Then, she replies,
"I can jump higher!"
And they started all over again. They were still trying to out do each other when I finally left. But hey, it was entertaining!
