The Unicorn "Corn"

I was sitting at the kitchen table this afternoon, doing some work on the computer. Hannah and Hailey were playing nicely in the living room playing with "My Little Ponies", when Hannah broke into a freestyle song that went something like this:

"I am a Unicorn. I have a corn. I am so pretty because my corn is so sparkly.
My friend is a pegasus. She is pretty too.
But I am the prettiest because of my Unicorn corn."

Trying to hide my laughter, I start a conversation with her...

"Hannah, what is the corn on your unicorn?"
She brings it to me and points to the unicorn's horn...and I giggle...she smiles back in a way that lets me know she is clearly mildly annoyed that I interrupted her play. I continue to ask more questions.

"Does it look like a corn? like a corn on the cob?

"No"

"Then why are you calling it a 'corn'?"

She thinks for a moment, rolls her eyes and says...

"Because Mom (sounding too much like a teenager who knows it all)

it's a Uni-CORN".

lol. I love 5 year reasoning.
