Stargazing

M: “Oooh, look at the moon.”

e: “No, no. That’s a star.”

M: “But it’s shaped like a smile…”

e: “It’s a smile-shaped star, silly. They’re all shaped like smiles, you just can’t tell because they’re so far away.”

M: “Really.”

e: “Yes, really. I know about it.”

e: “I cocoa-ed myself.”

M: (laughing)

e: (giggle) ….“No... really.”

 M: “What do you think that sound is?”

e: “ I don’t know, but I do hear a seal somewhere at the faraway ocean.”

M: “A seal? Don’t you think that maybe that’s the neighbors’dog?”

e: “No, it’s a seal. I’m sure about it.”
