Princess: Mom, what does twinkle mean?
Me: It's like light flashing off of something, little lights.
Pebbles: There's a song about twinkle!
Tag: Yeah, stars are other galaxies.
Me: Well, suns and stuff.
Princess: So what does tinkle mean, then?
Me: It means to pee.
Princess: Oooooh, so that's why people laugh at school when they say tinkle...
Tag: Tinkle, tinkle little star! [8 year old boy laugh]
Me: I don't know that stars tinkle. They're more of a gas thing. [crickets]
This was all discussed over our family home evening dessert. Yum!
