Yankee girl in Arthur's court

You can't appreciate home till you've left it, money till it's spent, your wife till she's joined a woman's club, nor Old Glory till you see it hanging on a broomstick on the shanty of a consul in a foreign town. O. Henry Porter 1862-1910, American short-story Writer

"What sha'mee do, Mama"?

Today Lexie announced to me that Daddy was her best friend. "We be silly together", she said. Almost every day she seems to be adding something new to her repoitoire of phrases. Recently she's been asking "What's that"? One phrase that can strike fear into the hearts of mothers of young children is "Mom, what can I do, I'm bored?". In Lexie's case, the exact phrase is "What sha'mee do, Mama?" although she now has progressed to "What shall I do?" A toddler's work is never done...
