I was very impressed, and told her that I thought that she had made an amazing bird.
Big mistake.
'Daddy...it's not a bird, it an Archaeopteryx. As you can tell compared to a seagull, it has a long, bony tail, and the jaw is long and has teeth...it's not a standard beak...and the wings were only strong enough for it to jump from tree to tree.'
Certainly, any person other than I would have been able to see the teeth in the jaw...
If it reaches the point where someday she figures out that being a paleontologist really means spending a lot of time digging in the dirt and eating ramen noodles, than so be it. She is a pretty big ramen noodle fan anyways....
