Just Six Months Ago

ELLIE: Mr. Waaaaaafffles! Whatcha doing down there?
ELLIE: Thanks for the Valentines paper, Mr. Waffles!
ELLIE: Hey Mr. Waffles! Have you met my new friend?
WAFFLES: You do realize that's a SNAKE, right? A slithering, slippery thing with a tongue that sticks out.
ELLIE: He's not very slippery, Mr. Waffles. He's kind of furry. And pink.
WAFFLES: Well you better look out, Ellie. He might jump you if you're not careful.
ELLIE: There, there, Mr. Snake. You're not going to jump are you?
ELLIE: ...butterflies and birds and squirrels and Mr. Waffles. Zzzzzzz...
WAFFLES: You're dreaming again, Ellie. You kind of wiggle when you dream.
ELLIE: Mr. Waffles!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The interwebs aren't working.
WAFFLES: That's because our modem blew up again. Which means no interwebs until it's fixed.
ELLIE: So how are we supposed to do our blog post? How are we supposed to say hi to our Facebook friends? Mr. Waffles, what are we going to DO all day???
ELLIE: Mr. Waffles? Are you going to sleep all day?
WAFFLES: Yaaaaawwwwwn–
ELLIE: Mr. Waffles??? Are you going to stop yawning? Sometime soon? On account of I thought we had a play date.
ELLIE: Mr. Waffles!!!
WAFFLES: Outa my way, Ellie...I'm going in!
ELLIE: Butt Mr. Wafflfes, I don't think you can fit in there.
WAFFLES: Can't FIT??? Are you kidding?! It's a box. I can fit in ANY box.
WAFFLES: Are you sure, Mr. Waffles?
ELLIE: Because this box looks kind of small. Or you look kind of...um, big.
WAFFLES: Big???
