The five-year-old who knows too much

In the car today

Robyn: Grace, when you are Mulan for Halloween we should put your hair in a bun and put chopsticks in it. What do you think about that?

Grace: That sounds good.

Robyn: Do you want to wear some make-up too?

Grace: Yeah, but don't make me look like a goth.

Robyn (to herself): Does she even know what a goth is? (Outloud) Grace, what is a goth?

Grace: Someone who wears black makeup around their eyes. They're scary.

Robyn (to herself): Where is she learning this stuff? At age five Bronte hadn't even been introduced to twinkies let alone alternative life-styles.
