Christian is SUCH a deep thinker. He spends 98% of his time in the car talking to me about random, out-of-this-world things that he obviously spends a lot of his time pondering.
Today, the conversation went as follows:
C: "Momma, why does Curious George ride a bicycle?"
Me: "Because he wants to, sweety. It's fun!"
C: "But Momma, monkeys really don't ride bicycles...right?"
Me: "Well, yes. Curious George is a special monkey though, so it's ok for him to ride it."
C: "MOMMA....monkeys DON'T ride bicycles!"
Me: *deep sigh and a small chuckle*
about 5 minutes later....
C: "Momma, you know Iris in my class at school?"
Me: "Yes...."
C: "My teacher said Iris is allergic to grapes. Isn't that weird?"
Me: "My goodness, that IS strange. I'm sorry to hear that."
C: "I think it's really weird. I love grapes."
And there you have it folks. Apparently it's disturbing to him that Curious George rides a bicycle and Iris is allergic to grapes.
Come to think of it....the whole grapes thing has me curious. Must go Google that and see if it's a true allergy. I'll update later with my findings. :)

*UPDATE*
According to Google:
Q:Is it possible to have an allergy to grapes?
A:It is possible to have an allergy to just about anything, so the answer is yes.
There are several special problems about grapes worth noting:
They are heavily sprayed with pesticides, making them the most toxic fruit you can buy.
Grapes naturally grow yeast on their skin.
Like any fruit, mold can grow on grapes.
Rather than a grape allergy, you may instead be allergic to pesticides, yeast or mold.
Well what do ya know? Maybe Iris has something going here...

That is too funny! It reminds me of the random stuff Caden comes up with! I agree that they must sit and ponder often!
