Oh, gosh, there are waaaaay too many to even choose. There was a kid I babysat for who told me, “I’m DO gonna get!” when I said I didn’t know if she was going to get a treat.

We were pretty chilled even though we were being careful since the very beginning. Even now my mother makes sure we all disinfect our hands and keep “shtei metter” (six feet) from other people.
