“I’m going to take SO many pictures today.”
“Yeah?”
“Your mom is probably going to throw my camera into the lake.” *
“Probably.”
Three minutes later.
“Hey! Look! I’m a SPERM whale!”
“Um. What?”
He juts his chest out proudly, as if offering me a better chance to see the large white whale adorning the t-shirt he has just chosen. “See?”
“Hey! That’s MY (bought in the men’s department, like so many of my t-shirts) shirt. And also, that is not a sperm whale.”
“It is today.”
“That is and will forever be ‘Moby Dick.’ ”
“That’s just too easy.”
*At one point during babycarrot sister’s wedding, my mom really did confiscate his camera, and mine, and force us to slow dance. I missed taking pictures of the bouquet toss because of her overzealous camera thievery, a situation made better only by having been provided yet another opportunity for me to playfully guilt her for as long as we both shall live.
