I absolutely love what comes out of the mouths of babes!
Last night, at dinner, Leo was telling us about his day. A classmate of his had gotten in trouble earlier in the week when there was a substitute teacher, and she was facing the consequences of her bad behavior. Leo announced, "Sasha* had to go see the advice principal today because she was so bad when we had the substitute." (*not her real name)
Me: She had to go where?
Leo: The Advice Principal (with a look that said, are you deaf? I said advice principal!)
(...I sure do hope that the vice principal had some good advice to offer Sasha.....)

Today, Pax and I were making brownies, his all-time favorite treat to bake. After I helped him crack open the egg, he watched as the yolk slowly slid out of the shell. Grinning and giggling, he said with glee - -
"Oh! The egg just came out like a fish!"
"Like a fish?" I asked.
"Yes! Like a clean goldfish!"
And indeed, the golden yolk bore an uncanny resemblance to Cookie, the goldfish Pax had helped return to her newly cleaned bowl, just last week.
