Miscommunication

This morning while Adrianna was in the shower, she asked me if people could sleep in the shower. I said you should never sleep in water because you could drown. She must have misheard me because later when she excitedly told Greg that she had just taken her first shower, she exclaimed, “And I didn’t even get brown!”

Tonight as we were driving on the interstate, she saw some radio towers with blinking lights on them. Even though she and I had discussed their purpose before, she asked me again what the lights were for. I told her that the lights were so that airplanes could see the towers in the dark to avoid flying into them. Adrianna then confidentally followed that with, “And so they don’t get a rash!” When Greg and I expressed confusion over what she meant by that, she looked to me and said that I had told her about the rash before. We then realized that she meant “crash”.

One thought on “Miscommunication

  1. I think Jeff would disagree with you about sleeping in the shower … he used to lie down and take naps. (When he wasn’t bellowing “The Star-Spangled Banner.”)
