Dinosaurs

The other day Lindsey came up to me and told me her mouth was hurting.  She showed me a little blister on her lip.

Me: Lindsey, what happened to your lip?

Lindsey: A dinosaur bit it.

Me: Are you sure a dinosaur bit it?

Lindsey: Yes, a dinosaur at school bit my lip.

Me: Oh...

Lindsey: Mommy, that was not very nice. Dinosaurs should not bit kids.

Me: You are right, I'm sorry the dinosaur bit you.

We still aren't sure why she believes a dinosaur did it...

Sad face

Another example of how literal Lindsey takes things...

Me: Lindsey, Joey wants you to pet his head.

Lindsey: Okay, I will pet Joey like this.

Me: Oh, good job. Joey says 'Thanks, I like that!'.

Lindsey: (Suddenly very sad) Joey never talks to me...

Poor baby. She was pretty sad that Joey seems to only talk to me.
