Interesting Conversation

Yesterday at about 6:00 pm, as I was walking to the car, I decided to call Jeff on his cell phone to see if there was anything I could pick up at the grocery store.  Instead of reaching Jeff, I ended up talking to a sweet little two-year-old in possibly the longest and most involved conversation we have ever had!

Vinny: Hi, mama!

Me: Hey Vinny, whatcha doin'?

Vinny: I'm at Kroger!

Me: You are?

Vinny: I see fans!

Me: You do?  What else do you see?

Vinny: I see apples, grapes, pears...

Me: Wow.  Lots of fruit.  Are you in the produce section?

Vinny: I see blinking lights!

Me: Blinking lights!  Wow!

Vinny: Hey mama, I go playground today!

Me: You went to the playground today?  Did you have fun?

Vinny: Uh huh!  I play playground.

Me: Wow, sounds like fun.

Vinny: I see crackers!

Me: That's fantastic.  Say, is Daddy there?

Vinny: Yup.

Me: Can I talk to Daddy for a minute, please?

Vinny: I don't think so!  I see bagels!

Me: ... Wow, bagels!  Can you give the phone to Daddy for just a second, please?

Vinny: Uh uh.  I don't think so.  I see fan!

(It went on like this for several more minutes until Jeff finally wrestled the phone from Vinny's grasp.)
