Things that make you go, 'Hmm..."

Luke, is my super inquisitive child - always, always asking questions even those he knows the answers too.  Most of the funniest ones happen when we are driving, usually to take Hannah to gymnastics.  And they usually come at me rapid fire...doesn't really wait for the answer before the next one comes.  For the past few weeks I've taken notes - this is stuff I don't want to forget.

1.  Luke's sleep has recently changed - he used to sleep in a little later in the mornings but a few weeks  this summer, he'd be up as early as 5:30 or 6:00 am.  He has a hard time falling back asleep and we are doing whatever we can to keep him in his room until 6:45 or 7:00.  He's getting really good at understanding and telling time, but doesn't understand why we have to sleep all night long.  The question was, "Why is 12 hours is too long? That's like 200 minutes."

2.  Immediately he follows this with, "How high is the moon?"

3.  He was fascinated with the archery in the Olympics.  Being the little mechanically-minded kid that he is, he wanted to try it out himself.  Can't tell you how many times I heard, "How does a bow and arrow work?"

4.  I think he's figuring out the differences between girls and boys.  "Can some boys have long hair?"

5.  Not sure why 14 months later he asks, "How does a family get babies?"  Uh oh.  He's really too young for this one.  So I say that God gives families a gift and babies grow in a Mommy's belly.  Then he asks, "Was Daddy in your tummy?"  Makes sense....I think.

6.  We drive by the new Allen Eagle Football stadium multiple times per day.  We've watched the construction from day 1.  Luke likes construction vehicles and wants to know all about what they do.  Most recently he's figuring out that some cars go faster than others - Daddy's car is faster than mine.  "What kind of trucks are so, so, so, so, so, so slow?"  So we have to talk about garbage trucks and dump trucks and 18-wheelers.  So much fun let me tell you.

7.  "What happens when a bug gets stuck in your hair?"   What is up with the hair questions?

8.  "What happens if you drive a car inside a restaurant or a house?"  This is a random one...guess it's his imagination at work?

9.  "Does God make superheroes?"

10.  And it always comes back to poop...."How come birds have white poop?"
