Mix It Up
"Aunt Jen, will you sit in the back seat with me so we can play games on the way there?"
Sure thing, sweetie.
"But are you going to sleep?"
No, it's just a few minutes until we get to the restaurant.
"But you said that you have to sleep in the back. Otherwise you throw up."
It's true. I guess we'll just have to be prepared.
"But Aunt Jen!! You CAN'T throw up because then I'll see it and then I'LL throw up!!"
Well, we'll just throw up in my purse, and then it won't get all over us. Deal?
"Yup."
..........
"Aunt Jen, will you play thumb wrestle?"
No, because you cheat.
"I won't this time. Pinky promise."
[Pinky promise ensues.]
Ok--1, 2, 3, 4, I declare thumb war.
[Thumb wrestling begins, with Janie demonstrating a mean technique.]
"I WIN I WIN I WIN!!"
That's pretty amazing.
"And I didn't even cheat this time!"
It's a miracle.
"I will draw you a picture of it when we get home."
