Cambios

"Hey, Dad!  Want to see my 'cambios'?" he asked, waving his Spanish science notebook under my nose.

"Of course," I said.  "I'm going to give Logan a bath.  Why don't you come and show me after you've had your shower?" I suggested.

Ethan disappeared into the depths of the house and reappeared seven minutes later, notebook in hand.  While Logan played happily in the tub, Ethan proceeded to review his work with great pride and enthusiasm.

"Hey, Ethan.  What does 'cambios' mean?" I asked.

"Oh, 'changes'," he said, fidgeting and wiggling.

"Speaking of changes.  What say you put on some clothes before we continue?  At least some underwear, please."

Seriously, if "cambios" doesn't mean "starkers" then why don't we save naked-science-notebook time for another night?
