So, do you know why you’re off of school today?

Annika: Yeah, it’s Presidents Day

What is that?

Annika: I don’t know. We didn’t do an art project on it.

Annika asks me, “What does insulted mean?”

I explain that an insult is something that you don’t think is nice. So if you feel insulted, you feel like someone said something mean to you.

She thinks a minute then says, “Then what does unsalted mean?”

Annika: What does that mean?

Me: If you say “we love each other” it means each one loves the other person.

In the olden days they used chopsticks because they didn’t have forks or knives or spoons. So they got wood and carved it down for chopsticks. And, they also used them to catch flies.

And in parades, they’d have clowns. And one guys was holding into these wooden things and they had sticks coming out for him to stand on and it would look like he was really tall.

Grandpa: I forgot your backpack.
