Fire Snake

This morning when Ali's swimming teacher called for her students, he was "fire snake." He's stuck with this name for a couple of days now. It was even on his swimming report "Ali (fire snake)". His lessons are done, and he did okay but needs to practice the back float.
This morning he didn't put on his swim suit when I asked him to, and I forgot to check. So halfway there, at our donut stop, he exclaims, "My swimsuit!" He gets an earful.
Leila is on to the next level next week.
Ali likes to ask questions and then answer them himself. I've learned to just say, "I don't know."
"Why are butts are weird?" he asks. "I don't know," I reply. "Because they ARE weird," is his answer.
