Mara: On Busy-ness and Clues

Me, thinking out loud: Mara, Mommy is sooo busy.

Mara, mimicking me: Mara is soo busy!

Mommy, laughing: Mara!– you don’t have a clue.

Mara, insistent: I not ‘not have a clue.’

Then (confirming what I just said) Mara added emphatically: I have a red clue! I have a red clue on my socks!

Me, seeing Mara’s socks: Hearts, Mara. Those are hearts.
