Why I love conversations with my daughter

yendiMe (interrupting her looooong talk about Inkheart): You should go potty. You can take Inkheart with you. Or something less challenging. Bathroom reading doesn't have to be brain surgery, especially since brain surgery on the potty isn't a good idea.
Elayna: Silly. How can you do brain surgery on the potty? The toilet doesn't have a brain.
Me: Well, that's the first problem. You've got to put a brain in the toilet first, and that's just gross.
Elayna: And illegal.
Yes, she takes this stuff in stride, and can even run with it. :-)
In other Elayna news, she got elevated to the highest spelling group today, and still got a 90% on the pre-test. I think her teacher needs to form a completely new group just for her.

Date: 2005-01-19 04:54 am (UTC)Well, me and three other kids. We were in a separate reading-and-spelling-group from second to fifth grades.
One of those kids grew up to be my divorce attorney! :)
