She’s catching on.

Daddy, can you fix my light?

You need a new light bulb?

No, the one where mama broke the switch.

Oh, that one. Yeah, we could probably fix that.

Can we fix it now?

Not today, but we can fix it later.

[pause]

Can we fix it within two years?

[hesitation]

Yeah, we could probably get it done by then.
