Boys and Girls

Ambree has just this week been able to consistently say whether someone is a boy or a girl, whether she is a sister or Jack is. It's been a confusing process to learn. But I inadvertadely added to the confusion by calling Daddy a pilot this week...

"Daddy is flying right now. Daddy is a good pilot."
"NO! Daddy is not a pilot! Daddy is a boy!"
"Well, yes, but he is also a pilot."
"NO! Daddy is a boy!"

This went on for a while and a couple of times each day this week as I tried to convince her that Sean could simultaneously be a pilot and a boy. Then today, as I was trying to teach her that a pilot is someone who flies a plane, she looked at Sean with sincere concern and inquisition...

"Daddy, you a pilot?"
