Why are you scared Meagan?”
“Cause all the people in France got washed away with the water! I can’t swim very well and I don’t like crickets either”
“I’m sure your dad will make sure you keep away from the water that’s dangerous”
“Sure he’s a banana head, he hasn’t a clue!”

Of course go grab a brush but won’t you be gentle?
