I just had the following conversation with my five-year-old:
Me: "Suzanne, you know what we could do? We could go outside and pick up some really pretty fall leaves, and then take the leaf and lay it on a piece of wax paper. And then--this is the part Mommy would do--we take another piece of wax paper and put it over that, and I iron it to kinda melt the wax together, so the leaf is stuck in between. And then you can hang it up on the window and it's sort of like stained glass."
A moment of reverent silence. Then: "Mom, you're a genius."
