Wait for It! – Conversations with the Pack

I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges. Here we go again.

Me: Sweetie, why are you staring at the clock?

Sweetie: Shhh! I’m waiting for the moving sticks on it to tell me when it’s time.

Me: Time for what?

Sweetie: I don’t know. I’ll know when it tells me.

Me: Clocks won’t tell you things…

Sweetie: Didn’t you say that clocks tell the time?

Me: Yeah, but…okay, you look at a clock and read its face for the time.

Sweetie: I thought you read books. Now you read faces, too?

MoonCat: Read my face.
