What do you know?

February 11, 2018


I complained to my 5-year-old that I didn’t feel like blogging today.

“Could you write down what you know about the world and I’ll put it on my website?”

He wrote down four sentences.

“That’s it?” I asked.

“That’s it!” he said.

So we added his words to a drawing by his 2-year-old brother.
