Oh, I was about to forget what I was even writing about. Anyway, tonight as I was getting Scout out of the car, getting ready to go in the store, she looked and saw a man over on the sidewalk, about 20 yards away, who happened to be lighting up his cigarette. She said, "Look Mommy! Him's got a sucker!!" I immediately corrected her and said very quietly, "Uhhh, no...thaaaat would be a cigarette." I said it, almost as if I was saying it to myself...since 1)Scout is currently in "I don't listen to anything you say mode" and 2)I figured it was probably the first time she had even heard the word "cigarette" and I wasn't expecting it to really stick. Why I thought this? I have no idea. As we walked towards the door, she pointed and repeatedly said, relatively loudly, "Him's got a seegawet! Look! Him's got seegawet!" I didn't even want to look up at Mr Seegawet. Finally, I did, and he had the biggest grin on his face and waved at Scout. I smiled and said, "Hi!" and couldn't get into the doors of the B&N quick enough. When we got in there, I could not stop laughing. Child, child.
Crazy kid. I wuv you.
