I want that. And that. And and that

This little girl was so cute.
"And what would you like?" I asked as she sat down.
Her Mother said "How about the Mermaid Eyes".
Okay.  I start painting.
"And this" she says, pointing to a color on my pallette that has nothing to do with the mermaid eyes.
"Oh lalala", I say, as I continue painting.  We'll see what will happen.
"I didn't have this yet" ~ The little girl is  pointing to dark red glitter.
Oh, ummmm "Oooh, wait until you see.  So beautiful," I said.
"And this"  ~ that's some gold glitter.
"And this.  I want this."  She's pointing to just about everything on my pallette, one color at a time.

The Mother is about to move on with the girl, as we adults might ignore a child's different-type-of-understanding.  She did like her Mermaid Eyes when we showed her the mirror.

But she's still calmly saying, "I didn't get this yet.  And that."  Lol.  She keeps pointing to the glitter-glue that takes a few minutes to dry.  Not like the almost immediately dry face-paint that I use on little children.

So I said to the Mother, "Do you think she can handle it?  So young, she might not understand that she's not supposed to touch it for a few minutes.  But if you think she can handle it, I can make a quick ring for her."

I just put a red dot in the center of a gold band, added a little black to the edge, and voila ~ look at how this little girl knew to admire her 'ring'.
