Nicholas likes to sit at the top of the slide at the park and collect sticks as "payment" for going down the slide. Then, when we leave the park, he tells me he has a stick collection. I call it
the "lazy man's stick collection." Upon leaving the park today, an argument ensued in the car.
Evan: Mom, do sticks come from rocks?
Mom: What do you think?
Evan: (with confused expression on his face) No...they come from trees.
Mom: That's true. They are parts of branches, usually.
Evan: See, Nick, I told you so.
Nicholas: Then why do trees have circles around them.
Mom: You mean the landscaping dirt piles?
Nicholas: Oh. That's not a rock.
