The letter of the day.......

The other day, we were in the car on a drive home. I decided to mix things on the ride to keep things interesting.

Me: Kali, do you know what the letter of the day is?

Kali 4.0: What's the letter of the day, Daddy?

Me: I'm going to let you pick it! What's the letter of the day?

Kali 4.0: The letter of the day is 'A'!

Me: Great choice! So now let's name some words that start with 'A'!

Kali 4.0: Apple starts with 'A'. Acorn starts with 'A'.

Me: OK, my turn. Ant starts with 'A'.

Mrs. Lime: I've got one! Orangutan!

Me: (Laughing) Did you just say "orangutan"?

Mrs. Lime: (smiling a nervous grin) Yes, doesn't that start with 'A'?

Me: (Laughing harder) Try an 'O'.

Mrs. Lime: (Laughing) Oh.
