To Aunt Becky:

This might be long.
Me—"do you think Granny will come here first

or will we go see her at her house in Texas ?"
MJ—"I think we should go to Texas"
Me—"do you think she will have a tree?"
MJ—"yeah"
Me—"do you think she will have presents?"
MJ—(light starts to shine in her eyes!)

"do you know what? Do you know what we should get?

Do you know what? (starts to whisper)
The girl that has Uncle Chris. The girl that has Uncle Chris

(note the word order).
We should get the girl that has Uncle Chris a….
We should get the girl that has Uncle Chris a Mirror…This big …

(hands show about 12 inches)."
Me—"which girl do you mean? The momma or the baby?"
MJ—"(duh look on her face) Da momma.

But when baby Coralyn gets big we can buy her a mirror too!"

(so proud of herself!)
(how did we get from Granny's house in Texas to buying a mirror for Aunt Becky?!)
Children have their logic.
We may never understand.
I guess Aunt Becky HAS Uncle Chris.
God Bless the Children.
