superlative henry

henry has been on this kick for the last year or so. i thought it was a phase, but it's lasting pretty long. he's always been a question asker. it started when most kids start asking questions- at about three or so - but it didn't end. he's a smart cookie and i believe it's from all the questions. i try not to answer, "just because", because i think he learns so much through his curiosity.
so- this phase he's going through. it's all about superlative questions. for example...
"hey mom, who do you think is the most popular person in history?"
or,
"hey mom, what's the most dangerous thing that happened to you?"
or,
"hey mom, what's the craziest animal you've seen?"
i don't know why he does this. it's cool because, if anything, it's a great conversation starter.

  1. I remember hanging at your house and i told him about the veins of chalk Terry and I found in the desert. He asked me how it was all formed that way. Hmmmmm I thought, sea shell? Shoot Henry! I don't know!
