The Family Tree

Me (leaving my parents house) - "bye daddy!"
Lennox - "No, that's not a daddy. That's a pop!"
Me - "Yes, but Pop is also my daddy and Meme is my mommy."
Lennox (scowling) - "NO! They're not... no."
Me - "Yep and mommy has a brother just like you are Stella's brother. Do you know who it is?"
Lennox (with his happy, I definitely know the answer face) -"Yeah. I do... Mrs. Kristen!"
Me - "uh... no. But good guess? It's Uncle Greg. And mommy has a sister too. My sister is Aunt Leah!!"
Lennox - "yeah, and everett..."
Me - "Well, close, Aunt Leah is Everett's mommy."
Lennox - "Yeah, and Avery is Aunt Leah's mommy..."
Me - "ok then."

Maybe Lennox's teacher can just skip teaching him the family structure because clearly he already understands it! ha
