Overheard

In the car today Relia told me that she hurt her foot. I asked her to hand it to me so that I could take a look.

Relia: I can't give you my foot!
Me: Why not?
Relia: (pause) Because it's connected to me. (longer pause) My foot is connected to my leg. And my legs are connected to my . . . bottom. And my bottom is connected to my tummy. And tummy is connected to my neck. And my neck is connected to my head.
Me: Very good, sweetheart!
Relia: And my arms are connected to my shoulders.

I think there is a song like that. I think that is really incredible that she connected all of that and expressed it. She fascinates me.

There is a song about the connection of our bones - and it would be fun for you to check it out and teach it to her! What a fun mind she has!
