Abby: That is a cute snowman you made, Edith. Edith: I'm almost sensing a deeply buried maternal feeling. Voice: BALL! Abby: I wouldn't sign him up for soccer yet.
I predicted snowguy’s demise, but I get no satisfaction in seeing Edith so unhappy. What’s the world coming to? That ball hit with such force that it knocked the color right out of the baby carrot.
I love seeing Edith’s soft side. She doesn’t show us her underbelly often, so this is a rare treat. Since you asked, I think “Ball!” said it all. After that, I was immediately drawn to Abby’s and Edith’s horror. Nothing either girl could’ve said would have matched the expressions on their faces. In my opinion…

Better than the one you used? I don’t think so, it’s pretty good as it is.

I think the carrot’s just covered with snow, and not coloreless per say.
Edith can say “He was going to be the new goalie” (I don’t know Edith well enough yet to know a typical line)
