Dorothy's friend Willa cracks me up enough that I'm dedicating a Sunday to her:
Willa, Dorothy, Brian and I were taking a neighborhood walk. We linked hands and Willa announced, "The whole family!"
Willa wore a vintage dress for her school portrait. I loved it and she told me it was her mom's. I said, "Do you have a picture of your mom in that dress? I would love to see it!" And she responded sassily, "No...I don't have a phone..."
Something we read mentioned a newspaper. Willa asked, "What's a newspaper?"
Willa has some dental work in her mouth which she refers to as her "jewelry". Her Jj's come out as adorable Dd's. Dorothy is unfamiliar with dental work, and takes Willa at her word -- Dorothy refers to Willa's "doolery".
In Willa's world canned carbonated fizzy water is "busy water".
I was eating a carrot; Willa caught sight of the long orange food and chimed in, "I want a popsicle too!"
Willa was playing with some toy animals and I overheard her give the character some dialogue: "Jesus, please let me be a duck."
Dorothy was taunting Willa over a snack of strawberries. "My strawberries are the sweetest," Dorothy jeered. "Miss Sarah!" Willa called, "Dorothy is saying a mean compliment!"
Dorothy mentioned that boys don't wear dresses. Willa corrected her, "It's up de dem."
