Stuff My Kids Say About Science

Last week-

3 Year Old:  Mommy, you ‘member that time I got really, really sick ‘cuz the buggies got inside my body?  Then the bright blood cells came to fight them and you said, “Not today natural election, not today!”

This morning-

3 Year Old:  Megalodon was the biggest swimming dinosaur!  And the sharks use to be megalodons!

Me:  Yes, that’s right!  What do we call that?

3 Year Old:  Evolution!

Me:  Very good, buddy!! (Feeling proud)

3 Year Old:  And our grandcestors are monkeys!  Grandma and Grandpa used to be monkeys!!  But now they’re my Grandma and Grandpa!

Me: …wait a minute…

Clearly I'm nailing this whole "scientist-mother" thing...
