Troy: “Dada, bad angels have black eyes.”
Me:
“How do you know? Have you seen any bad angels?”
Troy:
“Uh…no.”
Me:
“Then, how do you know?”
Troy:
“I just do. They have black eyes, because they turned into dragons.”
Me:
“Why did they turn into dragons when they were already angels?”
Troy:
“Because they had to turn into dragons to get to the dragon’s home. It just
makes sense.”
Me:
[chuckling] “Does it?”
Troy:
“Yes.”
Me:
“Well, if bad angels have black eyes, then what color do good angels have?”
Troy:
“Nice angels have green eyes.”
Me:
“Are you nice?”
Troy:
“Yes.”
Me:
“But your eyes aren’t green.”
Troy:
“No, they’re black and white with gray and blue.”
Me:
“So, not all nice angels have green eyes.”
Troy:
“They have green and blue and gray and brown.”
Me:
“So, basically any color other than black?”
Troy:
“Yes.”
Me:
“I see. And why are you thinking about bad angels?”
Troy:
“Because there was one in the picture, and he turned into a dragon. He had
black eyes.”
Me:
“So, we’re back to the dragons again?”
Troy:
“I guess.”
Me:
“Maybe we should think about something nicer than bad angels.”
Troy:
“Okay.”
