Day 140: The Things You Say

I had the kids take some down time (for once) upstairs in the afternoon. I heard them reading a dinosaur fact book in our little "library" (a walk in closet above the stairs that we've repurposed with a bookshelf and some bean bag chairs as the kids reading hangout. Here's the argument I heard. 

Calen: "The dinosaurs are now extinct."
Camden: "They're on the Planet Extinct?"
Calen: "NO, they're not. They're not on the Earth anymore."
Camden: "Yeah but what planet do the dinosaurs live on right now?"
Calen: "They don't live anywhere! They all died!!!"
Camden: "How?"
Calen: "Asteroid. Boom."
Camden: "Stupid asteroids."

Every part of this conversation was just amazing.


In unrelated news, Cam and I spent a good part of the day at the park behind Calen's baseball camp "reading" and, yes, playing Pokemon Go. And in case the world isn't completely saturated with Pokemon yet, Cam picked out a new hat AND matching watch at Target today. To go with his tie fighter shirt. That kid just has awesome style.
