Tonight I lay in Boo's bed as she drifted off to sleep listening to a relaxing kids CD. Across the room Yeubi was in his bed listening to the same CD and pondering out loud to me. These Cds take a bit longer with Yeubi but, then again, they succeed where most would not! Here is how it all went.
Yeubi: Will you make sure to remind me that I want to work on a cannon project tomorrow?
Me: I'll try my best to remember.
Yeubi: what does P L spell
Me: pl (phonetically)
Yeubi: I'm going to get or make a device that detects the actual weather and its settings display what the weather is. So the weather controls what the display shows. do you understand that the weather would control what the display showed cos it senses the weather and so its changed by the weather.
Me: Yep I understand that it sounds quit........
Yeubi: Well then I'm going to take it apart and reverse all its components and actions and the direction of power through it and put it back together.
Then what we set the display to will control what the actual weather is cos its all reversed and we will have the world's first Weather Wonderbox! I think people will be amazed don't you?
Me: It does sound amazing and it would be really cool to be abl............
Yeubi: Mum what would you get if you reversed a walkie talkie?
Me: A talkie walkie I guess.
Yeubi: hmm what would that do? maybe not much different I guess.(a short pause as we ride on a fluffy cloud in CD land) .What is the opposite of something that can't do anything?
Me: something that can do everything?
Yeubi: Yes and what is that?
Me: I'm not too sure. Maybe a miracle?
Yeubi: No - a god.(another pause as we slide down the worlds longest beanstalk slide) Mum what does L P spell?
Me: lp(phonetically) or you can say it LP which stands for Long Playing which was one of the types of music records before Cds.
Yeubi: Oh.(now we are quietly watching the world from a flying carpet) You will remind me I want to work on a cannon project in the morning won't you.
Me: I promise I will try really hard to remember.
(Silence. Yeubi finally drifts to sleep in a little relaxation boat bobbing on the water.)
