Two worlds collide...

This morning Harper & Calvary tried to explain the difference between lions and tigers to Oliver Jack over breakfast. Harper, who is the most abstract and analytical thinker out of my children, is the complete opposite of Calvary. Calvary is very literal and methodical in his thinking so the pairing made the explanation very entertaining.
Harper tried to explain the difference using book characters and cartoon references.
Calvary tried to explain the difference using the description of their fur.
Finally, Harper grabbed the book on the table and told Oliver Jack that "here! This is a lion!".
To which Calvary responded, "well , not really. That is just an illustration.".
