My poor nephew.

I was babysitting yesterday and he had lost one of his Dr. Seuss books. We literally looked everywhere for it. He was so upset. He asked me “Where else can we look?”

And my solution…”Why don’t we look on the bright side?”

Poor kid. He said “Where’s that?”

To which I tried to explain the concept. That he still had three Dr. Seuss books, and there were plenty of children out there who didn’t even have one.

His response “Lets look in my room again”

Ok. He is only five. But still, never too young to try to pump a bit of optimism into them!
