Such concern

Tonight at dinner the kids are talking a hundred miles an hour. I am eating a piece of watermelon and get choked while listening to Victoria's explaination of how watermelon is made.  It goes a little something like this...

Victoria - Mom I know how watermelon is made!  First you put some water, you know because it is WATERmelon and you put some food coloring in it and then put it in a blender and mix it up.  (Begin choking and can't catch my breath) Is that right mom?  Mom? Is that right? (still choking and unable to breathe) Mom!  Isn't that right you put the food coloring in and put in in the blender?  Mom is that right? Is it? Is it? Mom!

Addison looks at me and says - MOM WHY IS YOUR FACE RED?

Anthony without even looking up from his plate of watermelon says "She probably has a fever." In the most unconcerned voice he could muster.  As long as it didn't affect his watermelon consumption it didn't matter to him.
