Without discussing whether I approve of the conversation or not, here's what I overheard between Lorin and her Daddy:
Mr. T: Lorin, would you rather be pretty, smart, or funny?
Lorin: Funny!
Mr. T: And then would you rather be pretty or smart?
Lorin: Pretty!
Mr. T: And then what do you want to be?
Lorin: Shiny!
Um, not actually a choice, but I think we got our answer nonetheless. It'll save us money on private school at least...
