Ava's Thoughts on Evolution

Yesterday morning I turned on the tv.  There were upright monkeys in caves with crude tools.  Ava said, "What the?"  The narrator's voice said Our earliest ancestors hid in trees and caves from predators.  They begun using tools to gain an advantage over other species.  Ava turns to me and says, "What is this about, Mom?"  I explained that some people believe that we came from monkeys who over time became human.  She thought about this for a second and then said, "Well we couldn't have come from monkeys because if we did I would like bananas and I don't like bananas, Mom."
