Waiting

Overheard at dinner Friday night...

Chana (7): Where's the wishbone?

Rivka (5): Chana, the wishbone is just a lie they tell us.

Chana: Nuh-uh. If you get the bigger part, it comes true.

Rivka: Well, on my first Thanksgiving, I made a wish, and still... NOTHING!

(She raised her fist to punctuate the "NOTHING!")

(Also worth noting - on her first Thanksgiving she was six months old.)

Can't you see them having this same argument around a Thanksgiving table in 60 years?

I forgot to mention that she wouldn't tell me what that wish was, since, you know, then it wouldn't come true.
