    My kid got a worksheet on the long A sound. She got through most of them but was stumped on the “lobster”. I looked at it - Lobster, Crawfish, neither of those have a long A sound, what the heck?

    Hours later it occurs to me.

    OH, Craaay-fish? Who in the world calls them that? Nobody here. Where was this printed?
