Oh the things kids say...

"What is that?"

That question sounds innocent enough right? Well, let me put it in context. As Ali and I got up to get off the bus we were standing next to a woman with very large hair. I was holding Ali so she was in clear site of this woman. Ali proceeds to point and say, "What is that?" I am hoping the woman doesn't speak English at this point and I just quietly say, "A lady." I was hoping that would be enough but kids just say the darnedest things. Ali proceeds to say, "It's scary." while tucking her head into my neck to hide from the woman! I agree it wasn't the most attractive hair style I have ever seen but it wasn't meant to be scary. I quickly got off the bus and continued on my way really hoping the woman didn't speak English.
