She read a hair salon window: "Hair. Color. Wax. Nails." What are wax nails? she asked, and I began to explain further, and she wanted to know what waxing was. She is six, and tried to understand this process as I explained, wax, like the stuff in the candles, and it's heated, and they put it on your skin and pull the hair off, etc. I explained how it's faster than shaving, knowing she was familiar with women's razors for hair removal.
She contemplated the wax idea, and said, "But wouldn't that hurt?" oh yeah, I said, and then she said, "But why would you do that?" We do a lot of things that don't make sense, I agreed with her...
