It Was A Good Hit

Alternate title: A Dinner Conversation at Grandma’s Table

The littlest relays it to me.

What happened the night before.

When I was not present at the table.

“I inhaled my dinner and then I threw up on my plate.”

“I didn’t miss. It was a GOOD HIT. I got all of it on the plate!”

Then she turns to my mom (who is trying very hard to not explode from laughter) and says,

“I didn’t want to get it all over your pretty table Grandma.”

She was more concerned with messing up Grandma’s pretty table than she was about the fact that she lost it all to begin with.
