Scene: We were working on
"what is missing". Before we got started I explained missing to her.
She seem to get it so we went on to the book.... and then this happened.
Me: Juliet what is
missing from one of the lions?
J: (takes a very long
look) Umm.............umm...... uuuuummmmmmmmm...
Me: Is one of the
Lions different from the others?
J: that one! (She
points to number 4)
Me: Really? How is it
different?
J: It is missing a
tube?
Me: (in my head WHAT
THE HELL?) Umm... no I don't think so. Look at all the lions. Which one is
different
J: um........
uuuuummmmm............
Me: okay so lets do
this. (then we go through each body part and try and find one that is missing
something and the very last part I say is the tail) Do they all have tails?
J: Yes.
Me: Really? Even this
one (pointing to number 3)
J: Yes.
Me: Really?
J: Yes. It's behind
him (and then looks at me like I am an idiot)
Me: no Juliet it
isn't behind him
J: oh.... (still
thinks I am stupid)
Me: Juliet so what
Lion is different?
J: That one (she
points to number three THANK THE GODS!!!)
