This morning Middle asked me “What do squirrel farts sound like?” Not having direct experience in the field of rodent flatulence I replied that they probably sounded like tiny people farts. This, of course, led to many minutes of her attempting to emulate what she imagined such an event would sound like.
Later, as we drove home from the grocery store, she asked me “Why don’t we eat aardvarks?” Exotic meats are really out of my depth so I could only guess “Maybe it doesn’t taste good.” Naturally, she now would like to sample some aardvark meat.
It will be interesting to see what questions she comes up with after she wakes up from her nap this afternoon.
I love four year olds. They are totally bonkers.

Were you listening to the Sandra Boynton CD in the car?
Indeed we were.
And I just realized I have thought about aardvarks far more in the past 24 hours than I ever have in the rest of my 35 years combined.
According to Wikipedia, some African tribes do hunt aardvarks.
I will let her know. I think she will be pleased.
