I know I've said this many times before, and you've probably heard it from other parents too, but sometimes I just don't understand my kids. It's not what they're asking I don't get, it's why they're asking it!
Our youngest, 3 1/2-year-old Willa picks up so much from her older siblings, it can be mind-boggling. And yet, she still has an immature thought process. Today she was quizzing me on mixing colours. What does blue and green make? What do red and white make? What do light pink, red, orange and black make? (I told her some sort of brown.) And then came the stumper, which she even prefaced.
"Dit id gonna be a twicky one! What did one dog tay to the other cat?"
Happy sweeping!
