I really like the little geckos who live around our house. There are a few who live right by the lights in the porch, they love when the lights are on and they can hunt the bugs who flock around. And we always seem to have a few small ones zooming around inside the house. Some people don't like them, but we love friendly creatures who eat bugs. The kids are always happy when one is in their bedrooms.
I was talking to Dara about them a couple of days ago, and was surprised that she insisted gecko doesn't start with a G - she thought it started with an E, and was insistent that it sounds like "echo". Fair enough, I thought. The next day I mentioned this to Emma - she said "Aha, that explains it!" Emma and Dara had been reading a story book "Little Beaver and the Echo" and Dara had asked why there were no pictures of the echo. Emma told her that you can't actually see echos, but Dara was convinced that she could see the echos on the front of our house. I imagine it must have been a very confusing conversation.
