My new favorite President


Setting: Kitchen table
Characters: Me, Luke, and Emma
This afternoon's dialogue:

Luke: "That's Abraham Lincoln."
Me: (Stifling a laugh) "I see that. I like his beard."
Emma: (noticing a stern look from me at the last second) "What did you...ohhhh. That's nice."
Me: (Smiling thankfully at Emma) "I like the colors."
Luke: "And can you believe that I was the only one who gave him eyes!?! Everybody else must have forgotten."

At least he got a good grade on it. He sees the world so uniquely!

How cute! I was chuckling as I looked at it. He sounds like a joy to be around. Kudos to Emma for playing along.
