Joy 14

Nolie talks to nature.  We go on walks and she'll stop in the middle of the path.  I'll walk a few paces ahead and turn back.  "Nolie?"

"Shhh, mama."

"What is it?"

"Nature's trying to tell me something."

"Okay."

Then she whispers some things, presumably to nature, and we continue our walk.

Today, I dropped her off at school and a songbird was in the big spruce outside her classroom door.

It warbled.

She warbled back.

It warbled.

She warbled back.

They talked for a while, and then it was time to go in.

When I picked Nolie up from school, she sauntered up and told me that she and her buddy Santi had "decided to fall in love" and would be "marrying soon."  Her teacher suggested I talk to her about "appropriate" ways to show affection in the preschool classroom.


No way.
