It's fall.

Athena and I went on a walk on the trails today. We came across a fallen tree. I explained that sometimes trees stop growing when they are old and they fall over. She responded with, "Yah, that's called fall."

A what???

This works if I leave a tab open, then I remember to write:

Tonight before bed, we read Moongame. We got to the page where all the forest animals are helping Bear find the moon. There is a skunk who is sitting down looking under a rock. Athena pointed to it and said, "I think that's a penis." Trying not to laugh I asked what she had said. She repeated some gibberish. I said it was a skunk and tried to explain the strange position it was in. I showed her the skunk on the following pages. She said nothing.

Braces

Today Athena told me that she needed to take off her "sparkle teeth" before lunch. She said she was like Aubrey. I realized she was talking about braces.
