Explaining It Away

Bethelle bonked her head several times last night.  I try to keep little injuries light-hearted so that she doesn't learn to burst into sobs more often than she should.  "Is there a bonking magnet in your head?!" I quipped.  We had a few cute laughs.

Bethelle took my wisdom seriously, it seemed.  Today at the park, she was playing with some slightly older girls when she hit her head on something.  "I have a bonking magnet in my head," she politely explained.
