In which we ponder ursine elimination

Our drive to preschool takes us along a winding, wooded road. It's actually nice to be able to see it every day. Never mind the fact that it's a terrifying drive in a minivan. Still beautiful. Anyway. I guess it inspired this conversation on Wednesday.

Evan: Mommy, do bears live in the woods?
Me: Well, yes.
[Thoughtful pause.]
Evan: But do they poop in the woods?

And we all know the answer to that question, don't we?

Seemingly satisfied with the outcome of his questioning, Evan then turned his thoughts to other baffling issues. Such as the Pope's funny hat, perhaps?

  1. Wow was that really totally original? Or do you think he heard the saying and wondered what the answer was?

    Either way, it's hilarious!
