We have many interesting conversations that go on in our house. My husband is a science teacher that tries to make learning fun and comical. My spunky 3-year-old makes me laugh on a daily basis with some of the things she says. Put those two people together and this is what you get:
3-year-old: Can we eat grass?
Hubby: No honey because we don’t have a ruminating stomach!
Great. Now we have to explain what a ruminating stomach is. To a 3-year-old. If you don’t know what it is go ahead and Google it. I won’t explain what it is here because it’s pretty gross.
I’m gonna leave it to the hubby to explain this one!
If it makes you feel any better I had this conversation with Steve Dame yesterday:
Steve: “I think I’m going to start drinking whole milk….I had it once and it tastes way better (I’m assuming than low fat). If it’s good enough for babies, it’s good enough for me!”
Me: (affirming) “That’s great–you know you could take it one step further and get all the nutrients intact by getting raw milk.”
Steve: “You mean like from a cow?”
……….
Ha ha ha! You never know what funny conversations might happen with good ‘ole Dame! 🙂
