Stone Soup by Jan Eliot for June 24, 2001
Transcript:
Val: Hi, Wally! Happy belated Father's Day. Wally: Same to you, Val. Val: Me? Wally: Sure. You have to be both Mom and Dad to your girls. You should celebrate both days. You've done a wonderful job with Holly and Alix, you know. Val: You think so? Wally: Look at them! They're smart, respectful, kind, adventuresome... their father would be proud. Val: --Sniff-- Thanks!! Sometimes I yell... Wally: Andy?! Aunt Joan asked you three times to get Max off the roof!! I'm sorry, what did you say? Val: Sometimes it's a challenge. Wally: Tell me about it.
I like the part where Wally says “Tell me about it” to Val. That really says it all for me… :)
