Aren't they cute!

I have to relate an incident that happened just this evening. As many of you know my sister and her three children are up visiting from CA. Mary the oldest at nearly 4 is quite the talkative little girl. She is very smart and pronounces her words for the most part very precisely and correctly.

This evening my Uncle Steve came by for a visit. As he was leaving, Mary comes around the corner and says, "Hey big guy, where you going?" In keeping with the mood Uncle Steve replied with a, "Hey little girl!" I can only guess that she had not known what his name was or had forgotten it. I was so surprising to hear 'big guy' come out of my 'prim and proper' niece! Mom aptly dubbed it "one for the history books"
