Little Ones play long with lincoln logs…
They are buying and selling, trading and building.
Conversation is animated. Suddenly,
“Mom, once you’re poor can you become rich again?”
“Why, yes.” Says Mom
“O” girl is suprised. “Okay.” Discussion resumes.
Then, loudly,
“I’ll TELL you what rich is…” says my boy with great inflection on that tell, “rich is when you have TONS (tons rolling off his tongue) of money.”
Girl ponders quickly. Then, “We are not rich or poor.” She sums it up, matter- of- factly.
Ha!
I peep into the room. Apparently one small brother is hoarding logs and selling them at a high price to the others.
