Slice of Life Challenge | Day 11


Mom: Eliza, are we going in the afternoon?

Eliza (as she walked out of her room): Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Mom: What?

Eliza: I get it! After. Noon. It's after noon. Morning, afternoon, evening.

I am very familiar with those moments! All of a sudden, a word, used forever, looks new!

We giggled over her aha moment!

    My daughter was SURE Alice in Wonderland was Allison Wonderland! Actually, we are still trying to convince her (age 20) that it is Alice IN Wonderland

  4. Ha!! My gifted honors daughter (23 and married now) has these moments often. SO funny! It is true, though, that sometimes a word is so often used you don't really think about it.

  5. Now that word will always have a special aha! attached to it. Hope these moments never go away.
