Holly Belle (from the other room): Nathan and John Martin! Come in here!
John Martin: Oh dear, is that an 'I'm upset' come in here, or just a regular one?
Nathan: I'm not sure. It's always so hard to tell with her.
Nathan: What's up, Holly Belle?
Holly Belle: I want to show you all this nifty travel gear that Daddy John bought me.
John Martin: Um, I think we've already seen it.
Holly Belle: Yes, but you need a better look.
And I need to explain it all to you.
Nathan: >Sigh<
Holly Belle: This valise was a Christmas present. I love how nice and roomy it is.
Isn't it cute? Sparkly--just like my personality.
John Martin: Yes, very sparkly.
Holly Belle: And look at this travel mug that Daddy John found in South Dakota.
You know, it's very important to stay hydrated while traveling.
Nathan: You don't say.
Holly Belle: He also found this spiffy cowgirl hat. Perfect for my travels out west.
John Martin: <She looks like Marshal Dillon from Gunsmoke!>
Nathan: Well, it's all very nice Holly Belle,
but there's just one thing--you never go anywhere.
Holly Belle: Oh, sure, Nathan!
It's just like you to come up with some trivial little detail to shoot down my plans!

Yeah Nathan ! Spoil a girls plans why don't you! Never mind Holly Belle, go have a nice cookie and some milk, then get out your planner and start writing. We both know the joy of well planned list, along with a well packed case , ready to go when the time comes, almost as good as actually going, which makes going not quite so important x
something the boys don't seem to understand...just HAVING the sparkly suitcase, etc is sometimes good enough! You can then dream of all the trips you might one day take.
