Keen Perception

Today I discovered a mound of ants that had made their home near the kids' play tent. Apparently, Virginia had mashed a blueberry muffin all over the blankets, pillows, and toys that the girls were using in the tent. The ants liked this.

I was cleaning up the mess, while Ella stood behind monitoring.

Mom: Watch out Ella, it's hard to tell the tiny ants from the crumbs.

Ella: Actually, mom, I know what's an ant and what's a crumb. The ants are the ones with legs who move around. The crumbs are the ones with no legs and can't move around.
