Mixed animals

She is mixing animals.

It started a last week. We were driving in the car, just Tahlia and me, singing Old MacDonald. Currently, when singing Old MacDonald, Mommy and I pause to let Tahlia tell us what animal we should have on his farm.

We started out with a normal animal -- a horse. The second round, though, became a little odd.

"Old MacDonald had a farm, E I E I O. And on that farm there was a . . . what was there Tahlia?"

"Roar hop." She calls from the back seat.

"What?"

"Roar hop."

I'm not sure what she means. In our house, a roar equals a lion. A hop equals a bunny. "Tahlia, are you a lion-bunny?"

"Yeah." She giggles and smiles.

And we keep singing.
