... talking in the dark...


"Lengthening" exercises
(WA coast, January 2011)

A direct transcript from an actual "conversation" last week:

me (walking into the house): Hello the house!

M (from the kitchen): Hi...

L (also from the kitchen): Daaaaaddddddyyy!

me (putting down my things): How is everyone?

L (hurrying to the kitchen door where she stands in shirt and corduroy pants that have been too long for her): Daddy! Look at how much these pants weigh!!

me (after a moment's hesitation): Hey! They fit you now. You're getting taller and taller!
