pragmatic

Yesterday Brigid was making a birthday card for her Grandpa B (happy birthday, Dad!) and after I told her that a cake would probably be an appropriate picture to draw on the front (she added party hats too), she asked me, "Mom, how old is Grandpa?" I answered, "Let me think . . . he's 56." Brigid thought for a moment and then declared - the voice of practicality - "I'm going to draw THREE candles."
