Tiger!
When I put Quinn in this dress today she looked down and exclaimed, "I got tiger stripes!!!" 
My mom had hip replacement surgery today, so Quinn and I headed out to be at the hospital when it was over.
"Where you goin', Mama?" Quinn asked as we drove.
"We're going to the hospital. Grandma had her hip fixed there. We're going to see Aunt Julie and Aunt Peggy."
Quinn pondered this for awhile, then went back to reading. (She reads in the car constantly. How does she not get motion sick?)
On the way to the hospital, we stopped in at the school where I used to teach. Quinn told everyone we chatted with "I HAVE TIGER STRIPES!" She also informed them, "Grandma gettin' her hip flixed!" As we were leaving, we saw some men walk by with big brown boxes.
"What's in the boxes?" Quinn asked.
"What do you think, sweetie?"
"Hips!"
