headache

overheard yesterday in a cafe:

3 year old boy, seeking for attention, to his dad: i've got a tummy ache. i've got a knee ache. i've got a tummy-ache.

from the nice father, reading the paper: aww, noah, i'm sorry.

the boy: i've got a headache. [pause]

what's a headache?

the annoyed older sister: da-ad, how can he have a headache when he doesn't even know what it is?
