‘My Crayon Needed Duct Tape!”

Valerie is napping and Sadie therefore has her crayons out, coloring.

One of the crayons broke.  She paid me a visit, pieces in hand.  I exclaimed about it being broken and wondered why she was bringing it to me; was I supposed to do something.

“Duct tape.”

Sadie loves her duct tape, and her crayons too.  She learned about duct tape because it is required to keep Valerie wearing her diapers, which means Sadie requires it as a fashion accessory by the reknowned oriental designer Me Too.

I got a small strip of duct tape and rejoined the sundered crayon, praising Sadie for her fine job of generalizing about the properties of the tape and extrapolating to crayon surgery.

When she got back the crayon, she waved it triumphantly in her mother’s direction, proclaiming “my crayon needed duct tape!”

It doesn’t get much cuter than that.
