learning from children

Y?Before dinner. Tana Umaga would be very pleased with me.

Me: “What’s that letter?”
Rosa: “It’s a V!”
Me: “Are you sure? I don’t think Vs have a tail…”
Rosa: “It’s an H!”
Me: “Now you’re just making it up!”
Rosa: “It’s an upside down H with a curl on it!”
Me: “Errr…” [after some thought] “…actually Rosa, you are quite right!”

Which kind of proves she’s just as much of a smart-arse as her father. And also that I shouldn’t ask such bloody stupid questions.
