“DICKinson’s”

At Rise: The Oberhauser Four are pulling into the seaside town of Old Orchard Beach, ME.  The literate-minded soon-to-be 8 year-old Boy is snickering at the name of an ice cream n’ candy store,  “Dickenson’s.”

Gavin:  “‘DICK-n’-sons… get it?  Because *Dick*?…” he points out, scandalously.

The 4 year-old girl in the back seat in her perfectly innocent baby voice pipes up;

ClaraJane:  “Because ‘DICK’ is just another way to say ‘PENIS!'”

And apparently there is nothing like the feeling of having your 4 y/o baby in her baby voice spontaneously define the true meaning of “dick.”

Yes they are that innocent,  and we are that mature.

The End.
