16 July 2018:
Excerpt from my first phone conversation with Evan, my new about-to-be-four-years-old nephew, who my sister and her husband are in the process of adopting. Notice his gift for keeping it real and asking the tough questions:
Evan: Are you coming to my birthday party?
Me: Yeah! I sure am!
Evan: What about Isla? And Krista?
Me: Oh, those are Tante Erin’s kids. This is Tante Heidi. I don’t have any kids.
Evan: What? Why you don’t have no kids??? BYE! [Gives phone back to Tara.]
