The Dog Doctor

A few weeks ago Kinley asked Maddie what does a vet do? Maddie responded that a vet is a dog doctor. I saw Kinley get a little perplexed but then she went on about her day. A week later, she told me that she thought Capone needed to go to the vet. Then last night, she insisted that Capone go see the vet to get his shots. I finally asked her what her obsession was with the vet.
She said "Mommy, I have never seen a dog doctor before. I want to see how this dog is going to give Capone his shots and give him a check-up."
It finally dawned on me that all of this time, Kinley has been visualizing an actual dog as the doctor.
Oh.. to be three and so literal!
