Conversation overheard in our house

I was reading the latest Newsweek about the protests in Iran and Rory sat down next to me and started asking questions about the pictures.

Rory - Him has hair on his face
Me - Who?
Rory - (pointing) him. And him.
Me - Yes, that's a mustache.
Rory - Who is it?
Me - That is Ayatolllah Khamenei
Rory - Ku-Lainie?
Me - No, Kha - Menei
Rory - Lainie?
Me - No, the Supreme Leader of Iran
Rory - He has ears
Me - Yes, but I mean he is the religious leader of Iran
(At this point Rory just looks at me like I'm crazy)
Rory - I'm a princess
Me - Yes you are


I guess some things you just can't explain to a three year old
