New holiday

So today on the way to take Abby to school..(written 5/20/08 and not published)

Abby: Gramma when is the next holiday?
Me: Well I guess that would be Memorial Day.
Abby: What comes after that?
Me: Forth of July, your birthday, Thanksgiving, Jack's birthday, Christmas...
Abby: ...and after that is new holiday (new years eve) for adults.
Me: Oh, New Years Eve, yes. It is an adult holidy because you have to stay up until midnight and kids can't stay up that late.
Abby: Yeh I'd be grouchy.
Me: Uh huh. Lots of adults are pretty grouchy on New Years Day.
Abby: Maybe that's why Harry is so grouchy all the time.
Me: Is Harry a boy at your school.
Abby: Yes and he is grouchy every day...maybe he stays up too late.
