misunderstandings of the month, honorable mention

I know we're only a week into October, but I think it's really funny.

The child was telling me about exciting things her class is doing (at preschool.)

Child: "Now it's October, so we had to change the calender to goats. The old picture for September was apples."

Adrian: "Does the calender have a picture of real goats, like you saw at Drumlin Farm?"

Child: "No, they were GOATS!"

Adrian: "Or are they pictures of the talking-animal kind of goats, like the three billy goats gruff?"

Child: "No, they were GOATS! The white kind!"

Adrian: "Some goats are white...wait. Do you mean goat that says 'beh!' or ghost that says 'boo!'?"
