Three-year-olds can jump from topic to topic with a mental dexterity that is both amazing and confusing. To wit:
Me: “You have a VERY dirty face. After dinner, guess where you’re going?”
Little Brother: “Where?”

Little Brother: “No! No! I’ll take a bath SUNDAY!”
Me: “But you’re dirty today. You need a bath today.”
Little Brother: “But I ate ALL my grapes!”
HUH??!?!
