Hazel's observation

Hazel, my three and a half year old granddaughter, informed me that my Boxster looks like a kitty cat, something that I had not noticed previously. She gave me a well reasoned and detailed explanation (see below) of why this is so and now I can only wonder how I could have overlooked something so obvious. Thought I'd post this for the benefit of those among us who, like me, lack Hazel's insight.


Cheers - dj

My 4 year old gd thinks it’s a Tesla. Her dad my son has a model 3 so to her any sleek looking car must be a Tesla

Thinly veiled excuse to post a picture of your granddaughter, but nobody could blame you.

My favorite aspect of this car is the rear 3/4s view. I always thought it looked like a cat, with its haunches up, ready to pounce.

Well - You're not wrong... but, Hazel's kitty observation was completely spontaneous and unprompted as was her comment later when she told me "Papa, I like your car." Both of these things please me greatly, far more than they probably should. Anyway, I have made the objective observation that Hazel is an especially cute child so who wouldn't like to see her picture? Right?

Cheers - dj

I could not agree more. She is a cutie. As a grandpa of 5 I get great pleasure watching and helping the kids grow up. It’s great that you are able to take her for a ride. Enjoy every minute of it they grow up so fast
