Monday I picked up Will from preschool early (on our way up to Grandma’s house & teaching). We were walking towards the door when one of the teachers who had Will last year stopped me to tell me something funny. She said they had a visit from a dentist that day and she was asking the kids for healthy snacks. Kids were naming apples, bananas, and Will raised his hand and said “My brother likes to eat belly-button lint.” We laughed but I was puzzled. How in the heck had Will heard of belly button lint? It’s not a topic that comes up at the house, really! As we were walking again, Will said, “I was saying my brother likes to eat belly-button oranges”. Ah–lightbulb! We call navel oranges “belly-button oranges”. (anything to make food fun, right?) I went back to tell the teacher what he meant…they laughed even harder. Not quite sure how they heard oranges as lint! By that time the director had joined us and she said “You’ll need to put that in the baby book!” I thought “Nope, but I’ll blog it!” ;-)
