Things Kids Say: Brie on being Young and Old
Brie went with me to the immigration counter.
After the officer checked Brie’s passports, she said, ‘Lady!’ to ask me approach the counter.
Brie then asked, ‘Mommy, why did she call you Lady?’
‘Because I am a lady, a woman. She can call you Young Lady or Young Girl, too. How do you think she should call me, anyway?’
Brie paused.
And said, ‘Old woman’.
Hmm, okay.
Thanks 😏
…
(What happened afterwards was: I shook my head in disbelief, chuckled, told Wilson about it, and explained to Brie how the word ‘woman’ itself refers to adult female. She still insists that I’m OLD. Oh well … Mommies are old =D )
