Acutally, Mom...

Since the dawn of time, people have been pretending to "get" the noses of their children by putting the tip of a thumb between the pointer and middle finger and waving it in front of the child with a gleeful cry of "Got Your Nose!" Hilarity ensues.

I just attempted this with MaeMae. I squealed "Got Yer Nose!" and waggled my thumb-between-two-fingers gesture at her.

She cast a disdainful look in my direction. "Actually, Mom, that is your thumb."

Oh. Ok.

Can't you see it? "So tell me, MaeMae, do you think bipartisanship is possible in this lifetime, or shall we all revert to a cluster of small, agrarian societies?"

"Actually, Mom..."
