cookies

so i was on my way down the terrace stairs when my six year-old niece C called out to me. 

C: tita, look at the little guy! he has cookies! (pointing to the statue of a waiter holding out a small tray)

moi: where?

C: on the tray! (tray has sunflowers painted on it)

moi: but these are painted. 

C: it's pretend!

moi (whee!): you want one?

C: yes!

moi: ok, catch! (C catches the air sunflower cookie and "eats" it. then to my now three year-old nephew, R): how about you?

R (smiles): yes! (catches the air sunflower cookie i tossed him)

hooray for kids! and hooray for imagination! *alla the narrator in pocoyo*
