Sedona is adrift in a wrapping paper boat this morning. Having unrolled it and discovered the cardboard tube inside, she quickly realized a nautical theme. The tube, of course, a telescope and/or oar, and the wrapping paper, of course, the boat.
As if that weren't enough, she decided she had better mark the tube because "I needed it to say something so that people know who I am when I go exploring." Duh.
So she weilds a marker and concentrates for a few moments before asking, "How do you spell sail-ho?"
I ask a few questions for clarification and discover that what the child wants to write is "Ahoy!" because that is what you say in a boat. Again . . .duh.
Here she is - off to discover the new world.
