Fish

Me: Alex, do you like to eat fish?
Alexa: No.
Me: Why not?
Alexa: Mom, what do you call the one we wear when we went jetski with Ninong so that we don't go under the water and we will be safe?
Nicole: Life vest.
Alexa: (to me) Is the fish swimming up or down the water?
Me: Down.
Alexa: I don't like fish because I will go down and then I will not be safe and I can not breathe.

Alexa wanted to learn Tagalog words and was always asking people around her the translation to certain words. She told my mom:

Alexa: Lola Bessie, Raymond said fish is "aso" (dog). No! It's food!
