Keen noses

Today Todd went with Mommy, Opa and Oma to visit Ama's grave and bring her some flowers. While in the car on one of California's busier freeways, Todd wrinkled his nose when he smelled car exhaust through the open windows.

"I think something smells bad!" he exclaimed. Then he sniffed some more to try to figure out what that smell was. His conclusion? "I think somebody is smoking!"

This, of course, made Mommy and Oma giggle, and Mommy said "He has a sharp nose!"

That, of course, triggered a chain reaction of Toddy questions: "How about Mommy?" yes, Mommy has a sharp nose. Opa? Yes. Oma? No, just a regular nose. Ama? Hmmm... that made Mommy pause and wonder.

While waiting, Todd supplied his own answer: "Ama has... an *old* nose!"

True enough! ;-)

(and for the record, Ama did have a very sharp nose)
