Daisy helped me with Thanksgiving...
...by ripping up pieces of bread and putting them into a bowl. But mostly she carried on, singing crazy songs and doing crazy dances and knocking pieces of bread to the floor.
Me: Daisy, remember I need you to be my helper right now.
Daisy: Well, Mama, I am just trying to make you laugh.
Me: That's great, but mostly I need you to rip up the pieces of bread, not be a comedian.
Daisy (after a pause): A chameleon can change colors. Chameleons turn pink to blend in with the sunset.

Ah, she's becoming a serious student. (If you don't know how to answer, change the topic.")

Gompy, I don't think she was changing the subject-- she heard "comedian" as "chameleon"!
