This Morning’s Interrogation

Questions from a child

www.ThisNest.com

Not even eleven in the morning yet and, between spending time with his new Christmas presents (particularly Tiko), D’Lo has already been on his famous quest for knowledge. To add to the literal bazillion questions he’s already asked me in his five year lifetime so far, here are this morning’s:

“What is Poison Ivy?”

“Are bats real?”

“Do gorillas have claws?”

“What is dignity?”

“What happens if you don’t have teeth?”

“Are these gums?”

“What if there was no food in the world?”

“What is ear wax?”

“What’s delete mean?”

Well, I better get going…I have a lot of answers to prepare 🙂

Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you…D’Lo was very interested in Barack Obama’s ears when he watched him on the television last week. I reminded him that he was the leader of our nation – President Obama. To which he inquired:

“Is our President an ELF?”
