Cutting out the middle man....OT

This is an actual conversation between my 7yo daughter and me, her 56 yo dad this past week. For those of you who don't
'know" us, her mom is an active A and we've been divorced 18 mths and I have been blessed with sole custody. Oh and she is an only child.

Out of the blue while driving around doing errands:

DD (very seriously): Dad, I want a sister.

Me (thoughtfully): Well you never know what God has in store for us, maybe He'll send us a nice lady with a daughter around your age, like what happened with your mom when she was a little kid.

DD (seriously again): No dad, I want a BABY sister.

Me : Gee, sorry, but I'm afraid I'm too old now to be having any more babies.

DD (Gleefully): Maybe He'll send us one that's already pregnant!

Me (dryly) : Yes that would be splendid!

You can't make this kind of stuff up.

Thanks and God bless us all,
Coyote

Thank you Coyote for this post, it made me smile! I too have a 7 yr old only child, a son though. They do come up with the best 'ideas' don't they!?

Wishing you a peaceful labor day weekend.
