WATER, WATER, EVERYWHERE
Tonight we heard the phrase, "Water, water, everywhere, but not a drop to drink." I asked Jared if there was anywhere that he could be surrounded by water, but not have anything to drink?
Moments later, he said, "Yeah! The sea!!!"

I was pleasantly surprised that he came up with that so quickly. So I asked him why?

"Because there's lots of fish poop and stuff in it!" he replied.

Stifling a giggle, I asked if there was anything else in it that would make it bad to drink.

"Oh yeah! I forgot! Dolphin bums. It's bum water!" We have used this term to explain why it's gross to drink their own bathwater. And, well, it's true.

"Is there anything else?" I queried.

"Uh...."

"It starts with an S."

"Uh..."

"How about S-A-L-T?"

"Oh. Salt? Yeah, I guess."
