Today M is wearing a new outfit to school that she picked out.... green & purple leggings with horses on them and a purple shirt that says I Heart Horses. She loves this outfit and was so excited to wear it.
When we got in the car, the conversation started about the difference between a house and a home. They are learning the concept in school and her homework last night was to draw a house and a home. M was intrigued by the idea that they are different, because up until yesterday she believed that they were interchangeable. Her 6 year old version of an explanation between the two went like this:"A house is a structure. A building."
"A home is your family and all the things inside your house that make you happy and warm and fuzzy feeling inside."
Though, the quote of the morning from M happened as we were walking towards her building:
"Why are they called cowgirls when they ride horses? Shouldn't they be called Horse girls? I think I'll be a horse girl."
And so is the mind of a six year old girl....
