The King of Random Questions

Living with a 5-year-old boy provides a fascinating glimpse into a rather chaotic brain! Yikealo asks a steady stream of some of the most random questions that you can imagine. Here are some recent examples:

• "What do badgers do?"
• "What is a 'nightmeer'? Quinn says that he has one every three years."
• "Can Satan hear what we are saying right now?"
• "Can we please visit Antartica soon? I'd like to start a grocery store for penguins."
• "Are ghosts real?"
• "Mom, do you like to talk to squirrels? I just talked to one! I asked him a question, and he answered me! He said either "Yes" or "No"...I couldn't quite tell."
• "How long would it take us to walk backwards to Florida?"
• "What does 'Jor' mean in Jordan?"
• "Mom, you know those bugs that look like leaves? Do they have blood inside them?"
• "Dad, who's hairier....you or Frankie?"

Frankie

Now, imagine these questions being asked rapid-fire, one right after the other, and you'll have a fairly good idea what most of our days around here are like. I can only imagine the questions that he'll come up with in Ethiopia next week...
