Guess the Letter

“Mommy…?”

“Yes, sweetie…what is it?”

“Can you guess what letter this is?” (She was holding up two popsicle sticks vertically in a straight line, and holding them in the middle)

“Yes, I can!  It’s the letter ‘I’!”

(silence)

“Did I get it right?  Is it the letter ‘I’?”

“NO, it’s not right..”

“Huh?  Why?  What letter is it then?”

“It’s the letter ‘l’!”
