Rawan (5 years old) sees the space shuttle landing and says: I want to go on that thing- what is that?! My sister replies: it's the space shuttle. Oh yeah, I've heard of that- it's like this kind of rocket ship. (Even though I've heard of kids wanting to be astronauts, it was cool to see that pure interest in this thing that can be easily mistaken for an airplane.)
Iman (7.5 years old) is obsessed with Build-a-Bear. She knows prices and latest releases and absolutely everything about the online site. She says: I gave fedback. ?? She corrects: feedback. They asked if I was completely satisfied but at the cashier (pronounced casher) there were like 7 people in line and nobody there!! I look over at my sister and she has her eyebrows raised- the first she's heard of her 7-year-old giving feedback. But with Iman it's hard to be surprise. She pulls out a box: this is my build-a-bear mailbox. She saves every piece of mail- birth certificates and catalogs and (!) letters she has received in response to her questions (where can I get my bear restitched? Build-a-bear hospital!). She offers to tell me about each piece of mail but something distracts us.
