can't trick this kid...
[info]liya_rowan and I just went out to look at the snow, and she brought back a dry leaf, which I promptly put on my head and said to her, "Regarde mon chapeau!" ("look at my hat!"), to which she responds with a frown, "cheveux!" (hair!) and then runs across the room to pick up her hat, brings it over and holds it out to me.

I'm not sure if she was correcting my french, or my just my imaginative logic ("Silly papa, that's just your new hairdo, *this* is a hat!").

I sent this story to my dad, as "HAT" is his only word in French. He said the first time he went to France, he got off the plane and the wind blew off some woman's hat, and she chased after it, saying "MON CHAPEAU" and he was happy he got to use his first word right away.
