Table Talk

This is probably the type of thing that you "had to be there" to think is funny but it made us giggle. We were eating dinner last night and had this jar of honey mustard sitting out on the table. Andrew knows of course that meat comes from animals, milk comes from cows, and so forth. And by golly this jar of mustard has a picture of a beaver on it with the huge word 'Beaver' across the top. Andrew sees it and says in a very calm but somewhat concerned voice, "is that beaver poop?" I wasn't sure if he was kidding because normally a 7 year old boy will look for any opportunity to say the word poop but it usually results in him laughing uncrontrollably. That didn't happen - he silently waited for our reply just as eagerly as if he had asked a math or spelling question at school. He really wanted to know and was very relieved when we told him what it really was. We all live and learn I guess.
