Friday night we had guests over for a late dinner. Ella was up to greet them and then off to bed while we enjoyed grilled steaks and the works.
About 10 minutes into dinner I hear Ella coming back down the stairs and into the dining room.
Ella: "Mama, I forgot to tell you something. Do you know the word of the day?"
Me: "No."
Her: "Quadrilateral. Mama, do you know what that is?"
Me: "Of course I do."
Her: "Do you remember what a rhombus is?" (Its an equilateral quadrilateral, also known as a diamond)
Me: (searching my brain) "Of course. Similar to a square."
Her: "Mama, squares are so kindergarten."
Now, call me crazy but I am PRETTY certain I didn't learn about quadrilaterals and rhombuses (or is it rhombi) until oh I don't know GEOMETRY class. 1st grade, people. 1st grade.
