conversation

a friend runs a summer camp for kids. i helped her for a bit today.

7 year old: "who are you?"
k.: "er, i'm just helping here"
7yo: "are you someone's mom?"
k.: "no. not yet anyway"
7yo: "so, you don't have a baby?"
k.: "no!"
7yo: "but you like kids, right??"
k.: "...if they're well behaved"
7yo: "what if they're not?"
k.: "i become very mean"
7yo: dissolves into giggles.
