Post Adult

[poliphilo]

 Nikisha-next-door- who is eleven- says she thinks old people are cute (meaning us).  We're not quite adult to her.  Post-adult perhaps. This evening she called me to the garden wall to show me a big water gun we'd been talking about earlier- and (having instructed me in its use)  let me shoot it.

Yes, the water pistols of our youth were feeble things by comparison.
