We interrupt your lunch to bring you this neverending diatribe about grapes.

Liam, age 5 3/4, discussing grapes at lunch today:



"So, green ones to the same thing. Only they turn red when THEY die. So it's kinda the same and kinda different. Depends on the vine. How it grows, like yellow ones, the vines, turn purple. The yellow vines turn gold when they die and yellow grapes come. But different people get the yellow grapes, instead of us. Red grapes grow on red vines only the red vines turn green when they die and THEN grapes grow. Green grapes grow on green vines when they're dead they turn green. But the kind that we have is not the kind that turns red. Cuz we did have um grapes that grow on the same color tree as this. But instead we got the wrong kind of tree. The wrong kind of vine. So. That's what I'm talkin' about. This part right here is the vine, but we didn't pick the grapes off. It's not swinging cuz it's dead. And when it's dead it doesn't swing so much. It doesn't bend so much either.



So anyway, can I have dessert?"



Is it just me, or does he kinda sound like Sarah Palin?

That is classic! It must be a Kindergarten thing, because James is prone to such speeches as well. :-D
