Full Circle

This evening, Julia and I were chatting about little babies, her new favorite topic (and a welcome replacement for her old favorite, the hailstorm). She said that babies are carried around in Baby Bjorns, which she pronounces as "be-ar-ens." I said that was true, whereupon she riffed magically and circularly: "Bjorns sound like Karen, like teacher Karen at baby class. Karen sound like carry! Carry what you do with Baby Bjorns!" I laughed, astounded and amused by her train of thoughts, and she smiled broadly, sighing a quiet, "Yeah," to herself.
