A conversation with Pressley

Here's what transpired in the car this morning:
[Out of the blue]Pressley: What's work, mommy?
Me: What's work? Is that what you said?
P: Yes.
Me: [thinking] Well, it is something people do that adds value to society, and most of the time, they get paid to do it.
P: Oohhh. [pause] Sounds fun.

In case you are wondering... yes, I know she is two, but do you know how hard it is to come up with a definition for some random thing off the top of your head 4 times a day and then have to figure out how to dumb it down for a 2 year old (or 4 year old - whatever the case may be)?? Corin talks to them like they are adults, so I thought I'd give it a shot.
