Say WHAT?

At Christmas, while the girls were singing softly to themselves and playing, Tikvah stopped to ask me a question.

"Who is the witch's mother and why is there a witch?"

Mama: "What are you talking about?"

Tiki: "The witch's mother Mary, did nothing take in scorn" (O tidings of comfort and joy... from God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen)

Mama: "Ah, it's actually, "to which his mother Mary"

My kids rarely come out with one-liners, but this was a whopper!
