The amazing Papa Todd.

While driving home from school in an utter downpour:

E: "Mama, we aren't wet inside Kermit car, but Kermit is very wet!"
M:  "That's true."
E:  "How does Kermit go?"
M:  "His engine turns and makes his wheels go around.  Maybe next time Papa Todd is here, he can show you how a car works."
E:  "Papa Todd knows how cars work?  Wow!"
M:  "Papa Todd even knows how to make cars.  He can take a lot of little pieces of cars and put them together to make a new car that you can sit in and drive!"
E:  "WOW!  Do you think Papa Todd can make ME a car?"
M:  "Maybe you can ask him when you are older." 
E:  "Okay.  Papa Todd can make cars!  Wow...(thinks for a minute)...hey, MAMA!  Does Papa Todd know how to STOP THE RAIN, too???"
