My No Have Pants




The following is a clip from a conversation today at lunch on the deck as 2-year-old Josie wiggles in her chair, distracted by just about everything other than eating:

Grampa:  “Josie, do you have ants in your pants?”

Josie: (hiking up her cotton knit sundress and peering with questioning eyes at her diaper) “My no have pants on now.”  (looking up at Grampa with her head cocked and a let’s-set-this-guy-straight look) “MY wear PRETTY DRETH!”

Later, after dinner, Josie is enjoying a drippy homemade popsicle.  I step out on the deck with my camera in hand.

Gramma:  (chuckling at the mess) “Josie – you have drips everywhere!  Look at your face, and your hands, and your pretty dress…”

Josie: (considering this a moment of glory before the camera lens) “Cheeeeeeese!”
