After I tucked Xena into her bed and said good night, I told her I was going for a shower.
"Okay, but come back after your shower and hug me, okay?"
So I went back to her room after my shower and hugged her. She was kinda awake.
"Mama, you smell so nice..."
"Hmmm... like a flower?" (My shower foam is lavender -- my favourite.)
"Noooooo... if you were a flower, bees would go into your nose!"
"Uhhh okay. Not a flower then..."
"Yep, not a flower. You smell like... uhh..." (thinking hard)
"What?"
"You smell very nice, like a... like a..." (thinking harder)
"Like a what, baby?"
"I know! Like... the opposite of a skunk!"
Touché.

PS: your little dinophile might be interested - there might somewhere be a kid-friendly article about the largest dinosaur found so far.

Arun,
It's all the result of the Science magazine I work for. It's supposed to be for 9-12-year-olds, but Xena loves it. :)
Thanks for the dino article, I'll try to simplify and explain it to her.
And what a coincidence that you mentioned the corpse flower, we literally just featured it in the magazine! :D
ha ha ha!
How do we know,
:D
Nice post.Keep it up.
