Thoughts from Natty

On one of my forays into the play room today I noticed Natty was sitting and staring off into space (which is unusual for her). Then she looked up at me and said, "Mom, do you ever get the feeling that all this is Real?"

After some heming and hawing, I asked what she meant.

"I mean... it's not like we're in a movie or anything like that."

"Well, yes," I said, "I know that feeling."

Bit of a pause.

"It's a very strong feeling."
