Lest I forget...Conversations with Mr. E

Last night in the kitchen at medicine time:

Mr. E - Daddy, what happens to the garbage?

CKB - Well, some of it gets put into a big hole and then eventually they cover it up with dirt.

Mr. E (very matter-of-factly) - So, they bury it.

CKB looks over at me - I look at him - we grin and think, BOY HOWDY, this boy is smart! :)

CKB - Yes, Mr. E, they bury it.

Silly CKB for not just saying so in the first place, eh? ;)
