Mommy: What are we going to wear for our play date with Mr. Elias, Sophia?
Sophia: "Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher, vanity of vanities; all is vanity."
Mommy: How about this polka dotty pant and bodysuit set?
Sophia: "I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and, behold, all is vanity and vexation of spirit."
Mommy: Hey, what's this? It's the Ralph Lauren romper we found at the thrift store for five dollars! It's classic! It's adorable! Does it still fit? Hang on--
Sophia: "Then I looked on all the works that my hands had wrought, and on the labour that I had laboured to do: and, behold, all was vanity and vexation of spirit, and there was no profit under the sun."
Mommy: It does fit! Ruffled tights. . . and a cotton Janie & Jack shirt with gathered cuffs. . . Look at you! You are so cute!
Sophia: Hrrrrrrrrrrrng.
Mommy: Oh, look. You just shot poop right out the back of your diaper and four inches up your back.
Sophia: "The best laid schemes of mice and men/ Go often awry,/ And leave us nothing but grief and pain,/ For promised joy!"
