Yesterday, Riely had a friend over for a playdate and at some point during the day, a discussion about mammals came up. They took turns naming different mammals they knew: bunnys! cats! dogs! squirrels! horses! cows!
I asked them how they knew all of those animals were mammals. They both rolled their eyes and replied "Because they all have hair!" (And don't think I didn't notice that the "duh!" at the end was totally implied.)
Riely also added "That's why people are mammals, too. We have hair!" Then she thought for a moment and said, "Well, I guess we're all mammals. Except for Grandpa. He's kinda bald, you know."
