Baby Shopping

We got in my car, ready to leave Winco this afternoon and discovered that the car wouldn’t start. Brett and I were in the front, fiddling with various ad hoc, car-reviving experiments, while Anna and Gabi were in the back, waiting out the tedium of sitting in a warm, parked car with nothing to do but lick their Tootsie Roll Pops.  Anna, however, was bearing her burden of drudgery with a little more valor than Gabi (she was being quiet), while Gabi loudly vocalized disdain of her boredom. I tried to distract her by pointing out a baby sitting in a cart, waiting for her mother to load her and groceries into their van:


Me: “Look at the baby, Gabi! Do you see the baby?”

Gabi: “Oh yeah!”

Gabi turning to Anna: “I really want a baby for my birthday (her birthday was last week).”

Anna: “You want a baby for your birthday?”

Gabi: “Yeah, I want that one.”
