Crack Me Up

While Elijah was at basketball practice with Daddy, and Judd was enjoying a new episode of Curious George, Grace sat at the kitchen bar, reading aloud to me while I prepared dinner.

Her current book is Time Stops for No Mouse; she was happily jaunting down the rhetorical path of Chapter 45 when she stumbled upon this tongue twister:

"She eyed his neatly tailored robin's egg blue flannel suit, his egg yolk yellow button down shirt, his bow tie printed with tiny locomotives and his natty brown oxfords."

First of all, what in the WORLD is this little guy wearing???

Second (and best) was Grace's reaction to attempting to read this monstrosity of missing hyphens. And I quote: "Wow...that is surely a sentence. I mean, yea on the description, but no on this overall look."

Crack.
Me.
Up.
