Breakfast Conversation with Gabe and Emma


Breakfast Conversation with Gabe and Emma

(Scene opens: Sun shining in the kitchen window, mother singing as she pops bran muffins out of the pan.)

Mom: Impossible... Impossible.... Impossible things are happening everyday.... (From Rogers and Hamersteins 'Cinderella')

Emma: (sitting at the kitchen table, picking apart a muffin) What's impossible?

Mom: Impossible? It means something you can't do. If it's impossible, then it can't happen.

Emma: Are you impossible?

Mom: No. (hesitates) Well, your Dad may think I am.

Gabe: (Having already devoured his muffin, while pretending he isn't listening) Emma- You're impossible!

Emma: (loudly and with a scowl) I am not a puss ball!!

Mom: (wiping up Emma's muffin remains) No, you are not a puss ball, you are a little impossible!!

Gabe: I know how we could make a snot ball!!

Mom: What???

Gabe: First we could make a ball, then we could pick out some boogers and put them on the ball!!!

Oh My!!! Have a wonderful day!!
