Ivy has just finished a unit on bones. I should have studied it with her because now I'm forced to decipher comments and questions such as these:
Mommy, my tibia hurts!
Mommy, how exactly do my ribs protect me?
Mommy, why do I have an anvil in my ear?
Mommy, can you check my metatarsals?
Mommy, why does your clavicle stick out?
I'm constantly googling bone names just to try and understand what the heck she's talking about.
But here's my favorite....I was putting on Ivy's jeans, complaining about having to get them over her butt. Exasperated, I yelled, "WHY is your butt so big?!?"
Ivy said, "That's an easy one. It's because my pelvis is bigger than a man's."
