From the Mouth of Babes*
*a recurring feature here at The BBC
Setting - At home...living room...the girls are watching a science video about the body...
Adachi: Mommy, what are kidneys?
Me: Kidneys? Hmmm...Well, they are organs inside your body that help you to eliminate waste. That's the stuff you don't need for nutrition.
Adachi: Oh. I'm glad you told me that.
Me: Why is that?
Adachi: Because I thought they were parts of our legs.
Get it?
Kid. Knees.
Yeah - I keep telling you guys - I couldn't make this stuff up if I tried.
