The other morning, Carrie piped up with, “Mommy, we made cards for the vegetarian in our class!”<\/p>\n
Me: ….???…. You have a vegetarian in your class? Who is it? Are they sick?
\nCarrie: No, Mommy, the vegetarian. You know?
\nMe: Um, you mean a “vegan”?
\nCarrie: No. Maybe it’s not the right word. There’s a day for it, Vegetarian’s Day.
\nMe: (at this point I’m struggling not to laugh out loud) Oh! You mean you made cards for a veteran??
\nCarrie: Yeah, that’s it! For Veteritarian’s Day!
\nDenis and I then tried to explain to her what a veteran is, but I don’t think it quite sank in. I think she thinks there’s a day to celebrate not eating meat. Or possibly for being a veterinarian. Sigh.<\/p>\n
So, Happy Veteritarian’s Day!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
