Autumn Musings

Marty: It's a beautiful day today

Mommy: You're right.

Marty: And autumn is here.

Mommy: Yep

Marty: That means fall.

Mommy: You're right.

Marty: The leaves are turning orange.

As he gazes up to the sky and realizes that all of our leaves are still green, he shows a quick flash of anger, realizing that he has been duped by all the autumn/fall crap people have been feeding him.

Marty (recovering): One time Miss Hiring and Miss Wolfie (his imaginary preschool teachers) saw a worm eating a brown leaf and it turned green.

Mommy: Really?

Marty: Yes. It's autumn.
