On the drive home from a nice dinner out in a nearby town, my 11 year-old son was telling my friend and I about this girl in his class and how she talks funny. He continued, "...and sometimes if it's a big word like...well...somebody say a big word??"
Without a second's hesitation, the 7 year-old piped in with "opportunity" and we all fell apart laughing and impressed at her quick wit. "Good one," my son said.
That's the thing about my daughter, she hears everything, even when I think she's nodded out or uninterested... It's gotten me in trouble, A LOT actually.
I'd like to take this opportunity to give a shout-out to my precocious little 7 year-old and her impetuous responsiveness.
