China

En route to Spanish class this afternoon:

LOGAN: Mommy, when I'm an adult, will I be all done with learning Spanish?

ME: I don't think so. When you're an adult, you might want to go and live in Spain. Then you'll be able to speak Spanish all the time.

LOGAN: You know where you go to learn all the languages?

ME: Where?

LOGAN: China.

ME: Really?

LOGAN: Yeah. That's where you learn Chinese, French, English, Spanish - all the languages. And that's also where you get Chinese food. And they have lots and lots of cookies.

ME: China sounds like a great place.

LOGAN: Yeah, and they have lots and lots of playgrounds and they ALL have monkey bars.

ME: The Chinese must be really good on the monkey bars, then. How many playgrounds are there in China?

LOGAN: One hundred in all of China.

ME: That many? How many cities are there in China?

LOGAN: Only two.

ME: That's it? What are the names of the cities?

LOGAN: Oz. Oz and West. They have lots and lots of policemen and firefighters. They used to be sort of scary cities but not really because all the police and firefighters protect it.

ME: That is very good to know.
