Overheard at The Lake
Wild Thing: Mom, can we go swimming?
Me: No. We're going swimming this afternoon. Besides, you just took a shower.
Wild Thing: Well, that's not the same as swimming.

I've already had a variation of this conversation with my three-yr-old "Flicka"! Funny how they see things differently and don't understand our definitions of things! LOL

I love how kids don't get our reasoning at all, but try to make the connections.

She's right; showering is definitely not the same thing as swimming. Too cute!
