Artic Albino Elmo


Until March 8th, when Harper starts Montessori, Harper spends two days a week at an in-home day-care. The same place her "best friend", Nina, goes. Teresa is the woman who wrangles the children. Last week Teresa made a picture-flap-game thing. It was construction paper with photos from magazines glued to it, then paper towels glued on one side hiding the photos. The children and then pull-up the flap to see the pictures.

Well, there is a picture of a penguin under one flap, and under the flap next to it is a picture of Elmo. Harper, who has never seen Elmo before, heard the older children saying "Elmo, Elmo" and now whenever she see a photo of a penguin she calls it "Elmo". And I can't bring myself to correct her. In fact, I called a penguin Elmo today. Bad mommy.
