Things they say.
Jackson was telling me about what his classmate brought for show and tell:
Jackson: "He brought beach money, but he couldn't pass it around. It was fragile... He said OH GOD."
Me: "Wait, what? He brought beach money? Like, money he found in the sand at the beach? That was for show and tell?"
Jackson: "Yeah, and we couldn't touch any of it. And he's the one who said 'OH GOD' but that's naughty talk, is it?"
Me: "Well, no... I mean... sort of, I guess. Not really. But wait, what? Tell me more about the beach money because I don't understand what that is or why he was showing it."
Jackson: "Well, um... it was white and when he shook it you could hear something inside that he said was bones but you can't see them and it's really fragile so he couldn't pass it around. We couldn't touch ANY of it!"
Me: "OH! You mean he brought a sand dollar!"
Jackson: "Yeah!"
