I have been taking classes such as anatomy and forensic anthropology, which require the knowledge of the names of bones. Celeste and I like to make it into a game, me naming the bones and pointing at them on her, and randomly we will have quizzes.

Yesterday we had a quiz. She had forgotten the word for finger bones- phalanges (pn. "Fa-lan-gees") and so I was stressing that one this time. I went about my stuff and she was playing around the corner.

An hour or so later I hear a little voice singing behind me:

"Phalan-ges! Waving Phalan-ges! Follow the Phalan-ges!"

I turn to see Celeste waving her fingers at the kittens to get them to follow her!

I just thought it was too cute.

As a side note, if anyone watches bones, thats where I got the saying "Dancing Phalanges" and It was in that same tune.
