Funny words

Charlie watching jellyfish on an aquarium trip with his dad a few weeks ago

#1:
Charlie said he wanted some chocolate chips.

I said he could have one.

He said, “How about two? Three?”

I said, “One.”

“Three.”

“Okay,” I said. “You can have one or zero.”

“Zero!”

Hmm. Zero must seem like a fantastical, foreign word.

#2:
Charlie was riding on his dad’s shoulders. The wind blew hard against us.

“Daddy,” he said, “the wind is having a party in your hair.”
