What a Five Year Old Picks Up

I took my children to a movie (Bedtime Stories) today.

In the movie, there was a elderly woman denying that she was drinking the bottles out of her minibar at a hotel. She claimed a leprechaun was coming into her room and stealing them.

My child (who JUST turned 5 this past week) turned to me and asked earnestly, "Are leprechauns alcoholics?!"

OMG
