A Scene Every Parent Will Recognize

-
I was at McDonald's with Eve and the kids this evening, and Ryan and Lindsey were playing in the big play area while Eve and I sat in the main dining room. This particular McDonald's has a spectacular play area, a really huge, tall conglomeration of bridges, tunnels, slides, and so on. So here's the scene:

[Lynn and Eve eating fries]

[Eve looks into the play area and spots a child shimmying up a pole on the outside of the play structure]

Eve: I wouldn't let my child do that.

[Short pause]

Eve: That is my child.
