Yesterday, Akiko rushed in from playing outside, "Mom! Dad! The birds are talking to me and I'm talking back to them!"
"Oh really? That's cool! What are they saying to you?"
"...Um... They're saying...'What did you say?'"
"Anything else?"
"...And, um... 'You're cute!'"
"Oh, well, why don't you go back out there and talk to them some more and let me know what they're saying."
"Okay!" Akiko runs back outside.
Five minutes later, Akiko rushes back in and exclaims, "Oh my gosh! I just found out I wasn't talking to birds. Can you believe I was talking to a squirrel?!" She seemed utterly surprised at this revelation.
I knew Akiko was a perfect little girl, but I guess she got a dose of Chemical X*, too.
*If you don't know what I'm talking about, it's a Powerpuff Girls reference. Bubbles speaks squirrel.
