High Tide

Tonight when he was drinking his milk, Clark somehow managed to spill half the cup all over himself.  When I asked him what happened, he said, "well, I was drinking my milk and then the tide just came in!"

After that he asked me what "tide" meant, as if he wanted to make sure that he understood it correctly after a Curious George book that we read.  I think he's confident that he used the term correctly, and perhaps the moon is in the right phase for a high milk tide after all.
