A little while ago...
Me: When we got out this afternoon we need to dress warmly. Your dad says it's gotten quite cold.
Sweet Girl: (indignant) COLD! No! You mean it's gotten chilly.
Me: Well, it's in the 40s.
S: (in total I heart winter/native Pittsburgher fashion) I don't consider it cold until it gets down to 30 or below.
Me: (shrugging) OK. So I guess you could say it's gotten very chilly.
S: (heads over to front window and touches palm to glass) BRR-RRR! The glass is freezing!
Me: Well, I told you it's gotten quite chilly.
S: No, it's cold.
Yes!! We have finally perfected the art of the circular conversation at our house.

LOL! Love it! And I seem to recall a conversation or two like that around my house...
Oh that's a hoot. I love conversations like that with children. This is one to remember.
Ha! Glad we're not the only household that engages in these. :)
And I meant to say...circularity has its beauties. :-) Laughter is one of them!
