I'm sitting at the computer typing, when the dog bumps up against my legs. I look down, and she's sniffing the floor around my feet intently.
"What are you doing down there?"
"I'm looking for steak!" she says, wagging her tail hopefully.
"I'm pretty certain that there's no steak down there," I say…
That is so funny. I've had similar conversations with my children.
Good Easter story, Greg!
Well challenged, small one.
From the minds of babes flow the freshest thoughts.
I trust she got a smile and a hug for her efforts.
Parents never told me about the Easter Bunny (or the Tooth Fairy). First ran across them in kindergarten.
