"Oh, (insert new city name) you guys came pretty far" says the children's directory as she peeks over my shoulder while I fill out our card.
"Yes ma'am", I say, "we just moved here."
"Oh really! Where are you guys from?"
"Texas."
She smiles, "I figured you were from the south."
"Oh yeah. Why is that?"
"You called my ma'am."
A smile creeps up my face, "Well yes ma'am. That's just how we do things."
