Michael and I were discussing how we're eventually going to remove the popcorn ceilings in our house. Hannah overheard us and said, "That's okay, just don't remove it in my room."
I told her, "When we remove it, it will be the whole house, including your room."
Hannah got a bit panicky, "The whole house will be without a roof?!?"
At which point I realized that Hannah didn't know the difference between a ceiling and a roof. Once we explained that, she was okay with having the popcorn ceilings taken down. It must be bizarre to be a kid who thinks her parents have gone mad and are going to take the roof off the whole house. No wonder she was panicky.
