The spice of life


Kids see things from the most unusual perspective.

For example, the other day Ethan scraped his knuckle. A little later on he was complaining about it stinging. I explained to him that it stung because he was sweating and some of the sweat got into the cut. He wanted to know why that made it sting, so I told him that sweat was salty and that the saltiness made it sting. He processed that for a few minutes in silence and then said:

"What in my body is peppery?"

You gotta love him :)
