Kendall's hobbit-hole

Kendall was painting today when she showed me a circle she'd made.

"Daddy, what do you think this is?" she asked me.

Me: "A circle."

Kendall: "Yes, but what else is it?"

Me: "A wheel?"

Kendall: "No."

Me: "A head?"

Kendall: "No."

Me: "An orange?"

Kendall [becoming exasperated]: "No! And don't say 'a peach' next."

Me: "I don't know. What is it?"

Kendall: "A door!"

Me: "... a hobbit door?"

Kendall: "Yes! But whose door is it?!"

Me: "Bilbo's door?"

Kendall: "Yes!"

She has no idea how proud this makes me.
