Epiphany

On the trip up to visit his dad this week, we talked about road signs and traffic signals, and learned how to read certain words, like EXIT or SPEED LIMIT. (Note: if you're going to teach your 4 year old how to read what the speed limit signs say, and also how to tell how fast the car is going, be also prepared sometimes to drive for 2 hours while someone is asking you every 5 minutes why you're going SIX FIVE when the signs say to go FIVE FIVE)

So somewhere along the way, Brent saw a sign on the side of the road he didn't recognize. I asked him if he knew what it said.

"Oh no! It says that aliens are going to come down and destroy the earth!!!"

Then, after thinking about that a minute, he says calmly: "Hmmmm. That's kinda poopy."
