Ava's mom Gina says her daughter became very fond of Washington while they were early American history as part of Ava's home school curriculum. When Gina asked Ava "Who lives in the White House?" she responded by naming Washington. Gina tried to explain that Washington didn't live there and that maybe they could visit President Barack Obama in the White House, but Ava wasn't having it. Through tears, Ava could only shake her head and sob "George Washington."
