E asked, "Well, when will I be a grown-up?"
Me: "Hmm. Maybe when you are twenty-five."
E: "Really?"
Me: "Yes. You will have your 5th birthday, your 6th, 7,8,9,10,11,12,13....24, and 25!"
E: (Eye brows raised), "Really??"
Me: " Mmmhmm."
E: (Wheels turning in her head): Pause. "Will I still wear floaties?"
Me: "Probably not. We'll see."
