This morning as we were all rushing to get out of the house, Reid went into the pantry and started rummaging through his (massive) stash of Easter basket candy. He grabbed a jelly bean and asked me if he could have just one before leaving for school. I said, "No, Reid. It's 7 o'clock in the morning and you just brushed your teeth! You've been eating way too much candy this past week! I don't want you to get a cavity.". Reid looked confused, but we were in a rush so I pried the jelly bean from his hand and set him up on the counter to tame his hairdo.
He then looked excited and said, "MOM!!! I learned about cavity in preschool! When I jump off the stairs, I come back down 'cuz of cavity! And when I put the rice and the blue water in the bottle, the rice stays down low! That's cavity! Cavity is very, very amazing!".
Ah yes, my son. Newton's Law of Cavity.

That explains the famous apple! It was a tooth decay hazard!!! All this time I have been so confused. Reid has clarified so much for me.
What are his thoughts on Einstein's law of relativity?
LOL! What a great little tale.
That is excellent that he remembered the concept of gravity, even though the words were a little mixed up, that just makes him more adorable.
OMG.. That is hilarious. I really need to get my blog going again..
