Director

Well, I got another fascinating glimpse into my daughter’s psyche yesterday, from a conversation that went something like this:

K: Mom, I had good dreams from the director in my brain last night.

CM: what? you have a director in your brain?

K: oh yes, he is my tiny little director friend and he lives in my brain.

CM: really, that is very interesting.  What does he do?

K: oh, he takes the dreams and puts them on the screen in my brain so I can watch them.

CM: oh wow, that’s really cool! [trying SO hard to keep a straight face...]

K: yes, he is very, very tiny and he has a little computer in there that he uses to put the dreams on the screen.  And there is a girl director in there too.  And they are going to have a tiny baby someday too. 

CM: that is great honey, thanks for telling me about the director in your brain.

K: Sure, mom!  I’m a smart cookie, right?

CM: Absolutely.
