I found this quoted by a friend on Facebook, and had to share. It feels like A. A. Milne is once again my fatherly hero for the day! The way he writes is funny, sentimental, and so possible to imagine. I can just hear Eeyore's ho-hum voice and imagine his feet shuffling about just-so. What an optimist!
“It's snowing still," said Eeyore gloomily.
"So it is."
"And freezing."
"Is it?"
"Yes," said Eeyore. "However," he said, brightening up a little, "we haven't had an earthquake lately.”
--A.A. Milne
