Last night before bed Sophi asked me to get the "clo" off her bed.
I asked her what a clo was, and she pointed at a shirt at the foot of her bed.
"Clo" is singular for "clothes".
Who knew?
As it were…

Tim Mak @timkmakNot an NPR fan but Tim Mak’s reporting from Ukraine has been like a modern Walter Winchell - and his Kyiv remains in Ukrainian hands is like a modern “Good evening, Mr. and Mrs. America from border to border and coast to coast and all the ships at sea.” https://twitter.com/timkmak/status/1637439896297295872
Good morning to readers.
Kyiv remains in Ukrainian hands.
For the last year, I've been tracking a notorious Russian unit known for its role in killing 100s of civilians.

Meanwhile, Putin visited Mariupol overnight. More below...Recent tunes

“From the mouths of babes” we can learn so many things!
That is so cute. Imagine what it will be like when she is 13.
Children are inherently logical. I would say they are more logical than adults. Sophi is a good example. One dog, two dogs. One rock, two rocks. One clo, two clothes. (Though I suspect she hears it more as “close”.)
My wife was shopping recently and picked up a water bottle for my son’s new hamster (he has two now). A nice old lady stopped and asked my older daughter (she is three), “Do you have a hamster, little girl?” Alysabeth immediately replied, “No; I have a dresser.” Huh? The connection is *obvious* – if one is logical. Trey’s hamster cages are on top of his dresser. The two go hand in hand – dressers and hamster cages. She does not have the one, but she has the other. 🙂
Well, since my initals are CLO, Vicki uses that phrase when it’s time for me to get up. 🙂 Love the logic of the kiddos!
