You Won't Get Far Talking Like That, Kid!



My husband is teaching my daughter to play chess.  She's learning really well, but she keeps refering to the game as checkers and calling the pawns "prawns."



(This story has been cleared and approved by the child in question.)

About Me

If you happen to stop by and read something, welcome! If you'd like to know something about who's behind this blog, I'm a Catholic homeschooling mom of two, who supports Distributism (thinking small and local with regard to economics), universality (with regard to respect for the dignity of the human person), humor (with regard to humor), integrity (with regard to what we should strive for). I'm from Southern California and am now living in The South with my husband (a writer) and two kids - and an unspecified number of chickens! I do many things badly because that's often the best I can manage (ever heard G.K. Chesterton's quip, "Anything worth doing is worth doing badly."?).
