Learning the Language

In conversation with Naomi, I told her we would do an activity later and in the mean time, she needed to eat her lunch. She just looked at me and asked, "Why is it the mean time? When is it the nice time?"

Naomi asked me what a "human" was. I explained to her that humans are people; all kinds of people old and young. A look of understanding came over her and she said, "So grandmas and babies are humans, but not teenagers!" You are absolutely right.
