It's days like these I really miss our camera. You'll just have to imagine there's a picture here of little hands holding a white stuffed critter with a red nose and blue antlers, all dressed for winter weather.
My daughter came up to me holding a small stuffed animal she'd pulled out of a box in the closet.
"See this bear?" She asked.
"Actually, he's a reindeer," I told her.
"Reindeer?" She uncertainly repeated.
"See the antlers?" I pointed them out to her. "Those make him a reindeer."
She takes a moment to stare at the animal before making a pronouncement of her own, "I think he's a snow deer. He's wearing a scarf and mittens. He's a snow deer."
I love hearing kids own ideas of what things are. It makes perfect sense to them. lol
