Carrots and Ice.
One day I came out of the kitchen and said something to Nathaniel about peeling carrots. He said, "Peeling carrots???" incredulously like he couldn't imagine why I would be doing such a thing. I had to explain to him that carrots don't always come small and peeled and washed and in nice little packages. Hmmm. Maybe I'd better plant carrots in my garden next year to show him!
Also since we've been here, both kids at different times have come into the kitchen while I've been in there doing stuff and asked what that was on the counter. "Ice trays," I said, "you put water in there and put it in the freezer to make ice." "Oh!"
You just don't think about some of the things our kids don't know because of all the conveniences we have!
