Out of the mouths of my babes

Me: (helping Darcy study for a science test)  "How many pairs of legs do insects have?"

Darcy:  "Insects have 3 pairs of legs."

Me:  "How many body segments?"

Darcy:  "Three"

Me:  "Name them."

Darcy:  "The head, the thorax, and the abob-da-men."

Me:  "The word is abdomen."

Darcy:  "Well, it looks like abob-da-men to me."
