The World According to Alice

I always love how Alice brings a fresh perspective to the world around us. Because of her, I'll always think of an upside-down strawberry as a strawberry mountain.  Here are some of her other observations from the week (the ones I remembered to record, anyway.)

"Look, I have a parasaurolompus crest on my head!"

"Marshmallows! I wish I could have a bed like that."

When I asked Alice why she was writing the As upside down, she retorted, without any hesitation, "That's because the As are walking on the ceiling." Then, by way of explaining the other random shapes: "Those are constellations." (For the record, she doesn't write her name yet, but she can trace it if I write it for her.)

"Oh, that man has a watermelon drill and he's laying down on his side and I think he's dead!"
