Today was science day at Nathan’s school. They got to get their hands dirty with some worms. They also got to bring one home as well. Yeah for me.
As he sat in the back seat holding his plastic ramekin full of compost and wormage, we got into an argument regarding what to do with it.
He told me that its his new best friend Luke Skywalker and he was going to live at our house.
I explained to him that worms need to live in the ground and we could put him in our garden and he could live there.
He countered with, “this is an indoor worm and he needs to live in the house.”
Stooping to his 4 almost 5 year old mentality where anything about poop is funny, I said, “lets put him in the garden so he can poop in it and make fertilizer for the plants.”
Nathan:”OK!!!”
End of discussion except that he keeps going out in the rain to visit him.
