My sister-in-law, Melinda, posted this a few months back about her youngest, Sophie, and it makes me crack up everytime I read it! Enjoy...
So, the other day I was working on the computer in my office (shocking, I know) and Sophie was playing in the backyard. All the rest of the kids were at school. It was early in the morning and pretty chilly out (no, really, it was).
Suddenly I hear the sliding door open and Sophie yelling, "I'm gonna tell Mom!"
What the... ???? Who the heck is she talking to?
Before I can even ask, she marches into my office and in that tattle-tale voice says, "Mom! Duke is smoking!"
Huh?
Me: "What is he doing?"
Sophie: "He's smoking!"
Me: "Is there white smoke coming out of his mouth?"
Sophie: "Yes"
Me: "Is it cold outside?"
Sophie: "Yes"
Me: "Breath looks white when it's cold out. He's not smoking, honey."
At this point she's starting to "get" that Duke isn't going to be in as much trouble as she thought, and so she loses interest in the conversation and asks for a snack.
Well, at least she knows smoking is bad. I think.
