More Kira Commentary

We stopped at my parents' house while we were in town (had to pick up some product for a leg study I'm a guinea pig for), and we got doing the "trivia quiz" thing with the kids. Typical questions for Kira were like, "What are the names of Santa's reindeer?" and "what are four kinds of birds we see at the feeder at camp?" and "what are the names of the seasons?" From there we went into "What month is Halloween in?" (Kira said "January", which is also apparently when she thinks Thanksgiving is....need to work on that). She *did* get Christmas right. So then Mark pops in with "What month is the Fourth of July?"

Kira thinks hard for a moment......."June?"

Oh my.

DISCLAIMER:

Everything here is just my opinion. I am not an expert in anything except being me. I link where I can, but I make no promises that links will work forever and still go to the place I originally planned.

Topics I discuss are of interest to me, but do not necessarily mean anyone in my life is directly affected by it, so please don't jump to conclusions.

Something that works for me or someone I know wouldn't necessarily work for you. If you don't like what I say, don't flame me. If you like it, or if something might help, take what you can, ignore the rest. Oh, and please don't steal my stuff. mk

P.S. I love discussion and questions, and will respect your opinion, as long as it is not derogatory or disrespectful. I reserve the right to delete any comments that piss me off, which include (but are not limited to) bots & trolls.
