No swimming today
Every day, as we weave our way through the gym, Sophie stops to wave at all the swimmers in the pool. Today, as she smooshed her face against the windows and prepared to shout her customary "Hello, swimmers! You wet!," we both noticed at the same time that the pool was drained of water. Sophie looked utterly shocked. She exclaimed, "Ma-ma, da water is gone! No one can swim in the pool!" I explained that the water would be back soon, but Sophie remained shell-shocked. As we reached the front door, the front desk employee waved and said, "Bye bye Sophie, see you tomorrow!" Sophie turned around, glared at the employee, and demanded in a stricken voice, "Why you take water from pool? That not nice. You share! You share da water. RIGHT. NOW!"
