Setting: I'm walking the dog on a favorite trail while Samantha is riding her bike just ahead of me, discussing the joys of upcoming preschool.
Mom: I think you're going to like preschool, there will be more kids and more teachers. Let's learn the teacher's names. Mrs. W is the head teacher.
Sam: (turns around, mildly grossed out facial expression) You mean the other teachers don't have heads?!? Ugh!
Mom: (laughs, marvels at her kid) No honey, they all have heads. Mrs. W is the Lead Teacher, she's like the boss.
Sam: What is a boss?
Mom: (fatigued) Umm, the person that tells you what to do. Sort of like Mom and Dad for you.
The joys of a three year old's perspective... this reminds me of the Parts books!
