Better than mascara

Last night, after reading Abbey (the 3 3/4-year-old niece) a bedtime story:

Abbey: Suze, why do you have eyelashes? (Yes, she calls me Suze, not AUNT Suzie, or even AUNT Suze)

Me: Same reason you do, I guess. (As you can see, creative explanations are my strong suit)

Abbey: Yeah, but why are yours so long and pretty?

And then my heart melted into a big puddle on top of The Tale of Pinocchio.

  1. Yeah, she does that. Yesterday she told me she wanted two Grammies so she could have me with her all the time. Melt.

  2. Seriously, what does Jeremy feed her? Because that's what I'm fixing for Stew's dinner tonight!
