Nutrition?

This morning's conversation with Ethan (age 2.5):

"What's this, Mom?"

"That's an almond. It's a nut."

"A nut? What's a nut mean, mom?"

"A nut is a kind of food."

"What does food mean, mom?"

"Food is what we eat to give our body nutrition."

"Nutrition?"

"Uh-huh."

"In our BODY?"

"Uh-huh."

"Okay."
