the eyes have it

a few nights ago we were sitting at the dinner table. sophie pointed at my eyes. and said eyes. i asked her to point at her eyes. and she did. i asked her what color her eyes were. she said brown. i told her my eyes were brown. and hers were blue. i then told will his eyes used to be blue too. like the blue of his booster seat.

will: what color are they now?

me: they are a little more grey. like grampa dale's. so i'm told.

will: grampa dale?

me: yep.

will: where is grampa dale?

me: well, grampa dale is an angel in heaven.

will: is he going to come and visit us?

me [tears welling in my eyes]: oh, i think he visits us every day.
