Rocky Mountain Majesty

Yesterday the Rocky Mountains came up in conversation and we told Halle that we would take her to see them someday.
She brought it up again today on our way to the library. I was driving and half-listening to what she was chattering about (Yes. I confess.) So I hear her say, "And someday you'll take me to see them, right Mom?" I agree (still on conversation auto-pilot.) There was the tiniest of pauses and she blurted out, "But HEY! You already took Cate and me to see them when we ate Chinese food!! Remember? The ROCKY FOUNTAINS!"
I snapped out of my funk and laughed at her. As I was about to correct her she added, "And it's like that song- Deep and Wide!" ("..there's a fountain flowing deep and wide") I was rolling by then.

Oh, the things kids say!
