The End of the Day

At bedtime Jack asked Eric if he would read Curious George. 

Eric: I can only read Curious George if it is a day of the week that ends in ‘day’.

[far away look from Jack and Owen]

Mama: What day of the week is it today?

Owen: Monday.

Mama: And MonDAY ends with DAY, so it is a: Curious George day!

Owen and Jack: Yeah!!!!!

Eric: And what days of the week come next?

Owen: Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday.

Eric: Yes, TuesDAY, WednesDAY, ThursDAY, and FriDAY.  Do those days end with DAY?

Owen. [Disappointed look]  No, those days end with night.
