Belle: Mommy, I don’t like ovals. I won’t eat ovals.
Me: Honey, I wouldn’t say that I generally put geometric forms on the menu.
Belle: Mommy, those ovals. I won’t eat ovals. (pointing to the pizza.)
Me: Oh, olives. Okay pick them off. Though, really, olives are not oval. I think they are more like circles.
Husband (who had been eating pizza and ignoring the situation): They are very oval. And not very good.
Me: Alright, alright, no one eats ovals around here. Fine.
(And yes, I do actually talk like a school marm with my young ones; I think it is funny. )

kids - so unpredictable and mysterious but so so loveable
I love ovals!
A very wise child. I myself never eat dodecahedrons.
How cute! I love stories like these. Kids are so interesting in the way they view their world. :-)
LOL! That is too funny! No ovals!
How does she feel about Oval Redenbacher?
I think it is funny too!! Great Post. Kids always make you sit back and smile
I'm trying to think of other ovals that she might dodge. Eggs?
Spheres... olives are more like spheres.
