How it Was

The other day my biggest grandson was over visiting with his Mom and little borther and as the afternoon was progressing somehow the topic of discussion turned to gardening. I turn to the little fella and asked, "Do you have a green thumb?"

He looked at me like I had suddenly sprouted a second head and said, "No! My thumb is pink!"

Me: "You know, your Mom has a green thumb."

He: "No she doesn't! Her thumb is pink, too!"

Me: "Your Mom is really good at gardening and making things grow in her garden. So we say she has a green thumb."

He: Her thumb is pink! Thumbs are pink, not green!"

We all had a good smile. He's a cutie.
