Mystery Solved

Today Ryan and I were reading the story of a man who was struck by lightning seven times. The story talked about how he knew when he was going to get struck because he felt the hair on his head stand up. Ryan stopped reading at this point to say, “Mommy, I know why that happens. It’s just the electrical charge in his body wants to go to the sky. So, it travels upward through his hair.”

Finding it rather amusing to hear my adorable little six-year-old using the words “electrical charge” in such a serious, scientific way, I smiled and said, “Ryan, that a great explanation."

He responded, “Mystery solved…You’re wel-come.” He even flourished one hand as if to bow. I laughed so hard!
