Leon always amuses me with his ability to ask the most common sense questions about things we take for granted.  Last week we were reading a book about Dora the Explorer, and Dora and her monkey friend Boots set off for the library with only her backpack to watch over them.  Leon wanted to know where her mom was.  And that is a good question.  Where is the mom while this little girl is taking off on one mad adventure after the next?  She takes Dora to the doctor and dentist, and she gives birth to twins, but otherwise, we don't see much of her.

Another night Leon asked me to sing, "Rock-a-bye Baby" while I was dressing him after his bath.  When I got to the end of the song he said, "Why was the baby in a tree? Babies don't go in trees!"  He has a point.
