Breakfast conversation
This morning while Laszlo was eating his breakfast, I was singing the "hot" song that he wrote for when his food is too hot. It's really funny, and the lyrics are, "Haaaaaaaaah-ah-hot, haaaaaaa-ah-hot, All you have to do, is blow your food...for the rest of your liffffffffe."
I was laughing at how funny the song was, so I told him he was priceless.
Laszlo: Mommy, what does priceless mean?
Me: It means something that's so great you can't put a price on it.
Laszlo: So, it's like "free" then, right?
Me: No, it's not like free because something free doesn't always have value, but something priceless has so much value that you can't put a price on it because there's no price big enough that would fit.
Laszlo: So then how do you buy it?
Me: It's not usually something you'd buy. It's like people or actions.
Laszlo: What's an "action"?
Me: Something you do is an action. Like right now you're eating breakfast, and that's your action.
Laszlo: No Mommy, my STATUS is that I'm eating breakfast.
I stand corrected.
