We were reading a book watching t.v. and my son said, “This is a funny show.” I asked what he thought was funny about it and he replied, “Because princesses don’t wear skates.” I was all ready for a discussion about gender equality but when I asked, “Oh, really? Why?”, precision boy struck again with, “Well they didn’t have skates in medieval times!”
uh, yeah – of course!
Ah, fun with Anachronisms! I think you might need to rent Ben Hur and see how many he can find in the chariot race. 😀 A fine rainy day afternoon activity.

This story reminds me of a day at Vint Hills Farm when Dan called Mr. Parker upstairs because they was a man like him on tv; we all gasped until Dan said, “See, he is a giant just like you!” Remember?
That Eben is a smart one!
