Me: "A comparison between two things using the word 'like' or 'as' is a simile. Can you say, 'simile'?"
Saja and Kora: "Simile."
Me: "Very good. See this sentence: 'I am like the sun.' That's a simile. 'Saja is like a kitten.' That's a simile. 'Kora is like a puppy.' That's a simile. Do you want to try?
Kora: "No, Kora is like a bird."
Me: "Good job, Kora."
Saja: "Mommy is like, um, a cow."
Me: Big laugh.
Saja: "That was a simile, wasn't it?"
Sigh.
I'm about the business of raising godly children. So far, God has blessed us with six of them! My husband owns his own business, and I'm fortunate enough to stay at home with the kiddos. If you're looking for deep philosophy on this blog, you're out of luck. If you'd prefer random tales of childhood tomfoolery, stick around!
