Conversation while taking the girls to school

The cast:
Chloe aka Papoose (6yrs old), Megan aka Duckie (3 yrs old). And yours truly, 59 and getting older by the day.

Papoose: "Pops, Duckie stuck her tongue out at me!"
Me: "Oh did she?"
Papoose: "Yes!"

After a few moments of silence Papoose says:
"Pops, remember when I was little, you told me I shouldn't stick my tongue out at people?"
Me: "Yes I do..."

A few more moments of silence, hoping the pause would dissuade her:
Papoose: "Pops...?"
Me: "Yes baby..."
Papoose: "You should tell Duckie too..."

I guess I've been told...

What a sweet post. Not a lot of things outshine the pleasure of my morning coffee, but this...
Brilliant.
Thanks,

Kids will do that to you. When I was teaching the #1 grandson about computer games, he sat on my knee so I could help him. Suddenly there was this HORRIBLE smell. I said, "T., did you pop a bunny?" (Our little-kid euphemism for passing gas.) With all the gravity of a 3-year-old, little mister T turns to me and says, "Paw-paw, we call those farts."

Dead silence followed for at least a minute.
 
Nice job bookending my day! Sweetness at the start, and now, omg, cuteness to close it out.
You're a rich man there NG.
Cheers,
 
Looks like there is a strain of "imp" somewhere in their bloodline. But that's OK, it just makes for more fun.
