On our way to day care this morning, the radio started playing Dancing in the Moonlight by King Harvest. Nate was immediately hooked and started playing along on his guitar. But then he heard the chorus: “Everybody was dancin’ in the moonlight.” He asked, “Dad? Why weren’t they sleeping?”

He had another good one Saturday night. My dad and I were trying to explain negative numbers to him. When I tried to illustrate it by having three M&Ms and taking away five, he held up his hand and said, “We can talk about it tomorrow.”
