Oops. Outlet, continued

Somehow the send button got pressed before I was done. It might have something to do with the 4 year old, 16 month old and the bonus 6 week old in my care today (long story, helping out a friend).

I could log in and edit the first post. But, that would require work and...work.

Anyway.

Amelia: mom! Mom! Why don't those people have electricity?

Mom: what...?

Amelia: that sign says "no outlet", so none of those houses have outlets for electricity.

Mom:....(cannot compute....) huh. Well..

Amelia: I wonder why they have no electricity.

Mom: ah hah! No outlet means the street doesn't connect to anything else. The street is a dead end.

Amelia: no it doesn't . If that is what it meant, they would write "dead end this way"

Mama: that's a lot of words to put on a sign.

Amelia: oh. Well, what about dead end?

Mama:..... Well.... I have no idea why they don't do that Amelia. Hey! Look at the pretty trees over there!
