Priceless

Thing Two the other night, while setting the table for dinner:

Mom, know what this is (holds up fork)?

Me: 

     What, are you new here?

Him: 

No, really, what do you think this is?

Me: 

Ok, I'll play. It's a fork.

Him: 

No, It's matter. Didn't you KNOW that?!? And this (a cup)- what's this? Think it's a cup? NOPE! It's matter.

This went on for about five minutes, him picking up objects and declaring them 'matter'. Apparently he is learning a lot in his Science class at school.

At the end of dinner, he looks at his Father, and says, "You're a LOT of matter!!"
