"Tomatoes"

Yesterday we had some pretty severe weather late in the afternoon and were under a Tornado Watch for quite some time.  Mia had a friend over and they were happily playing in her room when all of a sudden she comes running out quite frightened.  Before I could ask her what was wrong she blurts out, “Mommy, are there tomatoes coming to our house?”  It took everything out of me to not laugh in her face!  Even though I corrected her numerous times and explained that it was pronounced tor-na-do, she continued to ask me every 5 minutes if I was sure a tomato wasn’t coming.  Too funny!
