In Conversation

Early on Sunday morning I was sitting on the couch next to Peanut Maximus. We were about to get up to go about our Sunday morning routine, and I leaned back and stretched my back. Then Peanut Maximus also leaned back to stretch his back.

Peanut Maximus: Mama, why do I not make any sounds when I stretch my back?

Me: What do you mean?

Peanut Maximus: Well, when you stretch, you make sounds.

Me: Do you mean I make a sound with my voice? (I was thinking maybe I grunted or something).

Peanut Maximus: No, that snapping and popping sound!

Me: Oh! Well, I think that you probably only make snapping and popping sounds when you are getting old, not when you are a preschooler.

Peanut Maximus: Hmmmm.
