Those Precious Moments....

The thing I wake up for each morning is the wonder of what is going to bring a smile to my face during the day! Usually it's a funny thing that a child says or does. This is why I love my job. The children are a delight and make me laugh at least 20 times a day! I really would love to write down all the funny things I hear each day.
Today I will share a funny moment. It's a moment of mistaken identity! It caught me off guard. And it made me laugh!
While walking past the local CASINO the conversation went like this: 
Child- "I've been there with my mommy."
Me- "Really?"
Child- "Yes, I went there for stay and play."
Me- (knowing there is a program called stay and play for children in the community... but still naive and thinking there is something called 'stay and play' at the casino) "Are you sure?"
Child- "Yep, me and my brother went with mommy last week"
Me- (Taking a moment to look at the building and make the connection that the rec centre looks similar to the casino) "Oh, you went to the REC CENTRE!"
Child- (by this time quite finished with my confusion) "Yes, FOR STAY AND PLAY!"

The pictures below show that there is some similar curves in the building. Also, the buildings are close together, so the race track can be seen from both buildings.
It makes me wonder if I have any 'mistaken memories' like this from my childhood?
