From the mouths of babes...

Dear husband (DH) and I went out for dinner with some friends of his from grad school. They brought along their 6-year-old daughter. We asked her questions about her favorite subject in school (centers, where she can choose to bake), her favorite book (any Dr. Seuss book), and then about her pets. She sighed, and said she had a story to tell us about her pets. Dh and I readied ourselves for the drawn-out tale of a six year old. Here's what she said. She has a cat and some fish. Well, make that had some fish. Apparently, the cat ate the fish. She said, "It is a short story."
