Me: Why did you put toothpaste on your ears?
Anonymous Child: ....
Eventually I stopped asking "why?" and switched to "how?"
I suppose I actually meant, "What were the circumstances?"
At any rate, "How?' turned out to be an answerable question.
Anonymous Child: But everybody knows how to put toothpaste on your ears, you just squirt it out and put it on.

I'm just trying to picture which child it was...and the fact is I can imagine all of them, except perhaps Tommy, I don't think he would like to have toothpaste on his ears, although he would be likely to point out that everyone does in fact know how to put toothpaste on their ears! I just bookmarked your blog, so now I'm sure to have a little study break just a click away! Katrina
