Conversation with Kimmy

by Ashley Weeks Cart

This weekend, Auntie Kimmy told us the story of this positively genius conversation she’d had with Sunny when she babysat for her while James, Kaki and I were in New Orleans back in January.

Sunny, upon finishing an entire bowl of steamed broccoli: I would like some more broccoli, please.
Kimmy: Well, we don’t have any more broccoli. Let’s see what we do have…. We have a green pepper. Would you like some slices of green pepper?
Sunny: I would like a red pepper, please.
Kimmy: But we only have a green pepper.
Sunny: A red pepper would be better.
Kimmy: Unfortunately, a red pepper isn’t an option. We have a red tomato. Do you want a red tomato?
Sunny: Yes, I would like a juicy tomato.
Kimmy: I’ll cut it open and you can tell me if it’s juicy enough for your liking, okay?
Sunny: Okay.

Why this wasn’t on my radar sooner, I DO NOT KNOW.

I’ll be recapping what was truly a glorious weekend of birthday celebrations, visiting with friends, and setting up the house later today. For now, bask in the love of Auntie and Niece.
