Xander's thoughts today

This morning, after pensively eating his breakfast, Xander informed me that;
"when I grow up and I'm a man I'm going to invent a real Time Machine, Mom. I will go back in time and see Zuessy again and pet him and give him ice cream. I'll take you guys with me too, you, Dad and Tennyson, so you could see Zuess. Then, I'm going to go back (with you) to the day you and Dad got married and you can sit in the church and watch yourselves get married! Won't that be crazy, Mom? And then, I will go back to the time when it was just you and me and I was jumping in the leaves and I will watch you for a little bit and then I'll go play with you guys and you will say "who are YOU????" ... cause I'll be a grown-up playing in the leaves, and I'll say "I'm Xander" and you will say " no, THIS is Xander" and I'll say, "but it IS me Mom and I'm all grown up!" :)



"Mom, what happens if you put your hand in a rainbow? Does it go through it?" (I informed him that rainbows were made by sunlight hitting rain or moisture in the air and refracting the light. I also tell him how I chased rainbows when I was a girl and was never able to "catch" one) "But mom, how come in movies then and shows, they go and find the end of the rainbow? Or they get to walk on it like Dora? Are there different kinds of rainbows? Magic ones? ... I'm gonna find one someday!"
(After the rain/thunder/hail storm at the park this afternoon we saw a rainbow on the way home)
