Winston

Hey Winston,
Sup? Not much, Buddy.
Love, Carolyn

Mom,
What?????????
Winston

Dear Winston,
You said “Sup!” That’s so cute. 
Love, Carolyn

Mom,
What’s so cute?
Winston

Dear Winston,
You saying “Sup!” 
Love, Carolyn

Hey Mom,
It is? Well, okay, sup!
Winston

Dear Winston,
Like I said, not much.
Love, Carolyn

Mom,
Not much of what?
Winston

Dear Winston,
You asked what’s up. 
Love, Carolyn

Mom,
I did?
Winston

Dear Winston,
You did. 
Love, Carolyn

Mom,
I don’t think so.
Winston

Dear Winston,
You did. That’s what you’re asking when you say “sup!” 
Love, Carolyn

Hey Mom,
Oh. Good to know. It’s a fun thing to say while I run up and down the hall. Sup! Sup! Sup!
Winston

Dear Winston,
It’s becoming less cute now. 
Love, Carolyn

Mom,
Woohoo!!!!!! I’m going to dive under the sofa cushions and yell Sup! Now I’m climbing up under the sofa cover. Sup! Sup! Sup!!!!!!
Winston

Dear Winston,
Maybe a bit too much of a fun thing. You don’t need to repeat it over and over. Once is generally adequate.
Love, Carolyn

Hey Mom,
Look out! I’m coming through! Sup!!!!!!
