A says, "there are no geckos here." I think to myself how can that be? We only drove less than an hour and a half and stayed in the same state. Fast forward to the next day, less than 24 hours. A says, "oh - there's a gecko and more than one." As I glance her way a little excited her observation from yesterday was wrong; I see a creative response. It had just stopped raining after a couple of hours and the sun was back. "Look, it's a swimming pool for the geckos!" No squeals or toe tapping followed - win for the geckos!
