Different Meanings

I've heard that most high-wire artists working in circuses are Ukrainians. Besides lacking a fear of heights, their skills in gymnastics are legion. Our kids also possess these abilities, and I can assure you, their genes did not come from me!

Recently the weather turned cold, and I asked one of the kids to layer their clothing. "That way you'll have the flexibility you need in the autumn. Several layers in the morning will keep you warm, while you can shed them at recess when you get hot from running around."

"Mom, I don't need more flexibility. I have enough already. I can do like fifty flips in a row!"
