My niece asked me to guess her favorite animal and I have never been more confident in my life. She's six. She has a stuffed elephant she carries by the trunk, elephant pajamas, an elephant on her backpack. I said elephant. She said no. I said elephant again, slower, like she'd misheard. She said "no, ELEPHANTS are my job." Apparently in her head she's a person who takes care of elephants, which is different from liking them, and her actual favorite animal is a moth because they're "soft and they don't know where they're going." I asked my sister about this later and she said it's been going on since August and nobody can get a straight answer about the moth thing either.
