Tru: Mommy, mommy, look at my monster puppet.
Me: You mean frog right, and isn’t it like a bath scrubber?
Tru: No, it’s a monster.
Me: Well, see, it’s green, and frogs are green.
Tru: Monsters can be green too.
Me: Ok, fair enough. But it’s got big froggy eyes.
Tru: The eyes are very small, the monster is closing his eyes.
Me: What? Are you sure you know what eyes are. Ok, where are the eyes?
Tru: *points to the little slits at the center*
Me: Then what are these? *points to the round things at the top corners*
Tru: That’s the ears. The monster has funny ears. And monsters have a tail, frogs have no tail.
Me: By golly, you’re right! The frog is a monster!
Tru: It’s not a frog monster. Just monster.
Me: Ok fine, you can call it a monster, I’ll call it a frog.
