Typical Graden Story

     A "Typical Graden Story" shows great insight and an intuitive-knowledge, whereas a "Typical Jenn Story" shows the complete opposite...  ;) Tonight as Graden was staring at his lava lamp, he said to his father "Dad, I know how lava lamps work. The light bulb heats up the lava. It boils to the top, then it cools down, falls back down and starts over."
     What 7-year-old thinks about how a lava lamp works?! I know a certain 36-year-old who has never thought about how they work... When I was seven, all I wanted to know was how did Jem & the Holograms actually meet Synergy? Where did Care Bears live, and why was it impossible to actually find the Love Bear at Toys-R-Us? And why did we throw cat food out on Christmas Eve to feed the reindeer? But that is another entry entirely...

BWAHAHAHAHA! We let the reindeer starve.
Kids are just awesome. For a seven year old to question the functionality of a lava lamp is common, for a seven year old to school YOU on the functionality of a lava lamp is freakin' funny!
Oh, and by the way...
-Jem met Synergy through the earrings given to her when her dad died.
-The Care bears lived on clouds in the sky, pretty much inaccessible to everyone without wings or a cloud car.
-And as far as Love-A-Lot Bear is concerned, that was just bad timing honey. Emmett strikes again! BWAHAHAHA
