averiatrics, part 40

so, i took the kids on a walk to give mandy some peace. along the way, avery lost her shoe, but didn’t tell me until almost the very end of the walk…

avery: “i lost my shoe!!”
me: “where did you lose it?”
avery: “it fell off.”
me: “when? did it just fall off?”
avery: “yes.”
me, not finding it: “did it fall of earlier on the walk?”
avery: “yes.”
me: “did you have it when we left the house?”
avery: “yes.”
me: “did it it fall off by the construction?”
avery: “yes.”
me: “avery, you’re just saying ‘yes’ to whatever i ask you.”
avery: “yes, i am.”
