Mirror Dance

[ndrosen]

In a grocery store Friday morning, I was waiting to check out behind a woman with two children in the back of her cart, a little boy and baby girl. The woman definitely looked pregnant, too, as I observed a little later. I passed the time waiting by entertaining the little girl: when she held her hands in front of her face, and opened and closed them, I did the same. When she raised her hands to cover her eyes, and peeked through, I did that. When she waved her arms around, or grabbed one elbow with the other hand, I tried to imitate her.

She seemed to get the game, and I hope we were both amused for a couple of minutes.

I'm sure she was quite pleased with herself for having kept some random adult from being bored.

Did you squinch your face? That usually goes over well.

I don’t think I squinched my face, but I’m not certain.
