there's more than one way to a popsicle

Last night, when it was already way past bedtime, Victor asked me for a popsicle. When I said no, he asked me to put a whale puppet on my hand. This is the conversation that followed between the whale and Victor...

Victor: "Mr. Whale, can I have a popsicle?"

Whale: "You'll have to ask your mommy."

Victor: "No, that's not a great idea."

Whale: "Well, your mommy is in charge of popsicles."

Victor: silence (mulling it over)

Daddy: "Victor, who's your mommy?"

Victor: pause, then, pointing at Lucy, "she is my mommy!"
