My 10 year old is very bright but as far as common sense, dressing herself...let's just say those things are not high priority. Over the years she has done the sweetest, cutes things and says things which just seem to nail on the head. Her name is Elena and so we have named these stories Elenaisms.
This morning she comes out to me and says, "Mommy, the milk won't go in the bowl." me: For your cereal? Elena: yes. me: Well, if it isn't going in the bowl, where is it going? Elena: Well everywhere else. the counter, the floor. I have to keep cleaning it up because it refuses to go in the bowl. me: well let's go have a chat with the milk and I will see if I can get it to go in the bowl for you. A few minutes later the milk is in the bowl with her cereal. Elena: gee Mommy, what did you say? Me: get in the bowl!!
