Nevi in a very serious voice: “Mom, how can a salami kill you?”
Me: “Well a salami is a type of meat, like pepperoni, and I have no idea, outside of someone choking, how it could kill somebody.”
Nevi again: “But Mom, the other night at dinner (about 2 months ago to be exact) Daddy prayed for the people who had been killed by the salami”
Me: “That would be a “tsunami”, Nevi”.
Poor little sweetie – I can’t imagine what other misunderstandings are swimming around in her brain.
