Worms in your eyes

Lately Ella has been driving us crazy with the usual 4 year old questions, questions, questions! I just have to laugh sometimes at the way her little mind thinks.

The other day we were supposed to be going to our friends house for dinner but unfortunately their little girl Mikayla came down with a bad case of Conjunctivitis.

Here's how our conversation went....

J: We're not going to be able to go to Riley & Mikayla's for dinner tonight - Mikayla's not well.
E: What's wrong with her?
J: She has sore eyes
E: Why does she have sore eyes?
J: She has conjunctivitis
E: What's that?
J: Her eyes are sick
E: Does she have bugs?
J: Hmmm sort of
E: Are they ants?
J: No, they are tiny little germs
E: Like worms?
J: Hmmm no not worms, they are really tiny tiny germs, that you can't see
E: Oh..... (thinking for a minute)..... so there are invisible worms in her eyes
