“MOM!!!!!!!! Who came first ????? ……Dinosaurs, Skywoman or Jesus? I think these cartoons are WRONG and I am CONNFUUUUUUSED.”

(Sound of bedroom door closing. Sound of older brothers snickering. Sound of mother escaping yet another detailed philosophical and theological explanation on life with a six year old.)
