We had just viewed a commercial for a jewelery store...
Sammy: Mom, we should buy you a jewel
Me: Oh, yeah? That would be nice.
Sammy: Yeah! A diamond! Let's go right now!
Me: Well, diamonds are very expensive
Anne: What does "expensive" mean?
Me: It means it costs a lot of money.
Anne: And what means the opposite?
Me: Well, something that doesn't cost a lot of money is "cheap"
Anne: Hmmm...so if I found a Strawberry Shortcake toy that cost $91, that would be expensive. But if I found a My Little Pony toy that cost only $1, that would be cheap.
At this rate, she isn't so much going to ATTEND kindergarten as she is INSTRUCT kindergarten.
