Smart Daughter
Bobbin loves the Smart car. I think I've mentioned this previously. The convertible top, the fact that she's sitting next to me, the size ("It's MY size, Mommy"), and the 6-CD changer that lets her alternate between Sharon, Lois and Brahm and Laurie Berkner at the touch of a button (my touch; her seat's way too far back to touch the dash with her hands although I've had to tell her that it's off limits anyway since she realized she can reach it with her toes).
And we talk about it on the way to school and work.
Bobbin: Mommy, why is this a Smart Car?
Me: Because it's small and fuel efficient!
Bobbin: Whats fool essence?
Me: Fuel Efficient means it uses less gas.
Bobbin: That's what makes it smart?
Me: That's one of the things!
So it was with great amusement and pride the other day that she came running over to me as she overheard me talking to a friend about our car, and volunteered in her little pipsqueak voice
"We drive a SMART car, you know that? Our car is SMART. Do you know WHY it's SMART? Because it uses LESS GAS!"
and then she skipped away merrily, having done her part for the Smart.
I looked at my friend, smiled, and replied "See, it's true? Even a 3-year-old can tell you this is the right thing to do"
Anyone know if my daughter can start receiving commission on referrals and sales?
