Paul said, "I know that my Grandparents on my Mom's side are from Ireland, and my Dad's family came from France a long time ago. What about you, Claire?"
"My people are Odawa," I said.
"Ottawa?" asked Paul.
"That's a city, not a country!"
I didn't know what to say. Everyone knows Ottawa is a city, but I didn't know how to explain that it was also the name of my people.
Later, at dinner, I told my Mom and Dad about what we had to tell the class next week and about Paul saying that Ottawa is a city, and not the name of a people.
Mom smiled and said,
"I think we need to call Grandfather."
