Candid Child Speech Causing Uncomfortable Moments, Chapter 1
Berkeley and I went to clean the church this morning. Well, while I cleaned (with some other volunteers), Berkeley played with some toys in the nursery. We stopped in at QFC to pick up some groceries on our way back home. During checkout, Berkeley needed a question answered:

"Who's that big lady?" Berkeley asked pointing to the rather well-proportioned female checkout clerk.
"This nice lady is helping us buy our groceries." I said, trying to suggest a new adjective.
Berkeley did rephrase, if not in an ideal way, "Who's that big nice lady Daddy?"

In the parking lot, I told him not to describe ladies as big. Ladies are always nice, but never big.
