Conversations with a 4 year-old.

On the way to church Keith thought he take advantage of a "teachable moment" with Isaiah and try to teach him a new "day of the week".

Keith: Isaiah, do you know what day it is?
Isaiah:  Play with toys day!
Keith: Well, yes, you're going to get to play with toys.  But do you know what day of the week it is?
Isaiah: You don't have to go to work.
Keith: That's right, and what day does Daddy get to stay home on?  What is the name of the day?
Isaiah: Hannah.
Keith: No, not Hannah.
Isaiah: Uncle Trenton.  David.
Keith: (laughing)  No, it starts with an "S"
Isaiah: Saturday!
Keith: Yesterday was Saturday, so today is..ssssss
Isaiah: Saturday!
Keith: Yesterday was Saturday, today we are going to Kidmax.  What day do we go to kidmax on?
Isaiah: Saturday!
Darcie: Sunday, Isaiah.  If Kidmax is on Sunday and we're on our way to Kidmax, what day is it today?
Isaiah: Saturday!
Keith: Isaiah, see that big bright ball in the sky?  What is it called?
Isaiah: The Sun!
Keith: That's right, the sun.  So today is Sunday.  Do you know what tomorrow is?
Isaiah: Cloud Day!
