Picture this: I was picking up my kindergartner after school, and she couldn’t wait to share the day’s big revelation.”Mommy!” she chirped in the car. “Today we learned that boys are different from girls.”y grip on the steering wheel tightened as she continued — I had no clue where this was going to go.”My teacher said that boys have a ‘thing’ girls don’t.”
We finally made it home, with me still trying to figure out how I was going to answer any follow-up questions from my child.But after Mila kicked off her shoes, she proudly pulled out her art project: a crayon sketch of a turkey, tail feathers flared, snood dangling triumphantly.She glared when I burst out laughing at her “boy.” , to this day, Thanksgiving turkeys make me look twice.
