Time for news from the colorful world of Miss Dance.

Who writes rainbow letters like this, always in spectral order.

She is probably our most “quotable” child.

One favorite is the time she was discussing Devastatingly Handsome’s bout with meningoencephalitis as a child. She asked, “Did you die from it?” Our jaws dropped and we stared at her till the light bulb went on and she said, “That was a dumb question, wasn’t it?”

Sunday night I was eating wasabi peas. She stood gazing at me till I asked if she wanted some. “No! I’m just waiting to see your head get hot.” That is a typical Miss Dance interaction.

But her most famous is the time she re-did the line from Elf where Buddy wants a Christmasgram. Devastatingly or I used the phrase “non sequitur.” “What’s a non sequitur?” she asked, with perfect Buddy the Elf intonation. “I want one!”
