Later

Poor Tertius (age 5) is trying to master the meaning of language.

Understanding different references to time is especially hard.  Yesterday he told me that Next Week and Next Year are the same.

This morning he told me that he figured out another vocab word.  Apparently he has discovered that "Later" means 3 different things:

"It means 'I will take care of it tomorrow.'  And if a girl says it, it means, 'not ever.'  But if a boy says it, it doesn't mean anything."

 Thank you, Princess and the Frog!
