“Have you finished
your homework yet?”, I asked the (nearly) six-year old.
“I am thinking.”
“How long does it take you to think of ten interesting facts
about a cat?”
“I can think of only three facts”, he insisted.
“Okay, tell me. And I will help you with the rest.”
“Cats are a kind of alien, because when they are angry,
their nails come out”, he began.
I struggled to keep the smile off his face, but realized why
he had been struggling.
