The little one and I were watching as the older sister played her softball game, and we were talking, which is something the little pit bull does a lot of. But then, so do I, so the conversation flows when we are together. I reminded her of a ball field in the area where she had played earlier in the season, but she couldn't remember where it was.
"Think," I said, "just think." "First I have to find the thinking part of my mind," she responded.
She began walking her fingers all over her head just like the Yellow Pages advertisement from years gone by, searching for that area. You know, "Let your fingers do the walking." She has a non-stop giggle and the ability to talk and giggle at the same time, and so she did while covering her entire head, citing the areas she had found--the food part, the dance part, the school part, the play part--but alas, the thinking part remained elusive.
One need not look far to see this happens quite often with people--the inability to find and use the thinking part of their mind. At least Sydnee tried.
