The Bedtime Story Question

In a bedtime story I was reading to Katie, a little girl brought her unicorn to Kindergarten.  It said in the book that the unicorn was very good at counting because everyone knows that unicorns are great at math.  Katie interrupted the story and asked, "Is that true?  Are unicorns really good at math?"  I said, " Well, that's what the story says."  She said, "No. I'm serious.  Are unicorns good at math in real life?"  (7/1/12)

Daddy's Favorite Girl

Katie and I were playing a game of shuffleboard when she turned to Tom and asked, "Daddy, who are you rooting for?"  Tom happily replied, "I'm rooting for my girl!"  She paused for a moment, looked over at me, then turned back to him and said,  "Which girl?"  With a wry smile, he said, "Why, my favorite girl, of course!"  With a look of relief, Katie smiled satisfactorily said, "Oh good, that's me."
