little toes
Ellie: (appearing in the doorway and displaying little toes for me) I just wanted to do it.
Me: (I look down, unsure what ‘it’ is; see she has painted her toenails pink. On her own. Somewhere. In. the. House.) Ahhhhh! Ellie! (leaping up from the chair) Where did you do this? Show me! (and after surveying that we did NOT have pink nail polish indelibly spilled on furniture, floor or clothing, I had to smile)

Can’t wait to see those pink toe nails! If she painted them without a
spill, she’s better at it than I am.
She’s better than me too! I can’t believe how old she’s getting! Let’s just hope she doesn’t decide to do something crazy, like pierce her ears on her own…
