orphans

I took Eclair to a yard sale. There she spied a very very cute teacup sized doggie. I overheard the following conversation while browsing picture frames.

Eclair: Is that dog an orphan?

Yard Sale Lady: No, it's our dog. She lives with us.

E: Oh. Because if she was an orphan I could take her home and she could live at my house. Are you sure she's not an orphan?

YSL: No, her name is Sophie. You can play with her, though. But don't take her home. We would miss her.

I watched Eclair after that, she really seemed convinced that the dog wasn't getting enough love and should go home with us instead. And where did she learn about orphans, anyway?
