Doctor Halleigh
For a long time now, one of HJ's favorite games has been to make me or Brooklynne lay down and let her give us a full medical examination, including rather unorthodox procedures such as injections in the head, listening to our elbows with her stethoscope, and hitting any exposed body part with the reflex hammer. Last night was a new one though.
Brooklynne was laying on the bed, getting a pretty routine checkup, when Halleigh asked her to open her mouth. HJ proceeded to examine her tongue with the ophthalmoscope, pronounced the tongue "broken," and then conducted a tongue transplant operation with an organ donated by Mr. Potatohead.
Priceless. Oh, what I would have done for a video of that interaction...!

That is hysterical! I wish I could have seen it. It amazes me the things that a kid will pick up. How in the world does she understand the concept of organ transplant at three? The human mind is astounding.
It was hilarious; it took me several minutes to gather myself enough to take the prosthetic tongue out of my mouth, because I was laughing so hard.
I know I'm partial, but that kid is freakishly smart!
hilarious!! reminds me of when she rubbed desitin (sp?) on my stomach...
