Notice something?

Eve had just finished her bath and was wrapped up in her frog towel. She sort of crouched down to look at a toy on the floor, and did a slow tumble, landing right on her face. Trying not to laugh, I scooped her up while she cried a little and settled down. I asked her what had happened, but she didn't have an answer. I offered, "You were leaning over, and you fell. Did your hands get stuck in the towel?" "Uh-huh. Then I noticed something hard. It was the floor! I bonked my head." Well, I try not to laugh, but it's really a challenge sometimes.

Today as we were driving around, Eve announced, "I need some binoculars." "What?" "Binoculars, so that I can see people and the dogs and houses and hotels and the li-berry and motorcycles and cabooses and trees and the grocery store" and so on, for about 10 minutes, just listing everything she could see perfectly well WITHOUT binoculars.
