Profound Observations
Wherein Our
Heroine Solicits the Wisdom of a Three-Year-Old.
"Oscar's green a little bit. So's
Marvin the Martian.""Jill,
you're silly.""I have four
dolls. This one has a
bottom.""John, look at
me!""We're gonna go see fish.
Like Nemo.""Pandas can't
swim.""We're making
footprints."We're visiting
our friends Marie and Mark. They have a three-year-old, Amelia. She has a
sometimes solemn, sometimes silly take on the world, reported from a view about
three feet from the floor and conducted from morning to bedtime. For those who
have children, this is probably not novel. For John and me, it's a near
constant crack-up. She is a
small person with big opinions.
Which
she shares.I guess that means
she fits in very well with the rest of us.
