Bird baths

I was tired and a little grumpy at bedtime last night, and I wasn’t in the mood to go into Avery’s room when she called me in for the third time. But when I went to see what she wanted, she looked up at me with big eyes and asked, apropos of nothing, “How do birds take their baths?” The question was so innocent and out-there – totally typical of a 4-year-old and a reminder of how sweet these days are – that I suddenly wasn’t so grumpy.
