Maureen outside playing with friends: Mom!! I'm going to sleep with my friends tonight! We're going to have a sleepover. It is going to be SO EXCITING!!!
MaShell: Maureen, what are you talking about? (thinking she's invited all the neighborhood children, who are all boys, over to spend the night)
All the neighborhood dads raising their eyebrows: Mmm...hmmm....
Maureen, gently lifting her hand filled with crawling roly-poly's up to me: My friends, here they are!! They are going to have a sleepover with me!!
Maureen, to her friends: C'mon guys!! Let's go to bed!!
And then she ran all the way home holding her hand high.
