Last night during dinner at our pool, Jasmine turned to our friend Jeff and his four and a half year old son Josh. Pointing to a line she had drawn on a piece of paper with markers we had brought from home, she said, “See this line? It’s fuchsia.”

With a puzzled expression, Josh whispered something in his father’s ear. Jeff responded out loud, “What! You don’t believe it’s fuchsia?”

“No, because it’s purple,” Josh insisted.

Jasmine was unfazed. She simply picked up another marker, held it up so Josh could get a closer look, and said, “And this is lilac.”
