Lilly came home from school just a little while ago. She was doing her homework at the coffee table, when she took a break from it to come over and have the following conversation with me:
Lilly: "I wish my birthday was in April".
Me: "Why"?
Lilly: "Because the birthstone for April is a diamond".
Me: "You know what? I used to wish that very same thing when I was a little girl".
Lilly: "What's your birthstone"?
Me (wrinkling my nose): "A garnet...it's really really really dark red & I hate it".
Lilly: "What's my birthstone, an emerald"?
Me: "No, yours is green, but it's a peridot".
Lilly: "Is it shiny like a diamond"?
Me: "Well, kind of, but it's a really light, pretty green".
Lilly: "Do you know what the WORST rock is"?
Me: "What"?
Lilly: "TALC".
LOL! Here's hoping your birthstone isn't talc! :D
