Italy

(Sera's learning her letters. Everyday she'll pick a word for Mom to write on the chalkboard, then will try to copy the letters underneath herself. When I get home from work, Sera likes to show me the word she wrote)
Me: "Whoa that's a big word, Sera. Can you tell me what letters are in that word?"
(she points to each letter in succession)
Sera: "S...C...I...S...S...O...R...S"
Me: "And what word does that spell?"
Sera: "Italy!"

That's terrible!

Sera: "Mom, why does Jillian wake me up in the middle of the night?"
Mom: "Because she cries sometimes."
Sera: "But I don't want her to wake me up in the middle of the night. That's terrible!"
