John informed me tonight at dinner that the reason the Indians (aka Native Americans) who lived in the desert died was because:
"it was too hot for their bald heads."
Three years of graduate school and $30,000 later, I never even considered this possibility.
He went on to explain:
"the one's who survived rode camels to Wyoming. The one's who died traveled by foot and when the year passed they were dead."*
Where was he when I was struggling to write my thesis???
*These are his exact words-- I had to quickly jot a note to myself-- my favorite is "when the year passed..." If you know John, you know he talks like this.

I was always wondering what happened to the Indians. I am so glad John finally found the answer! I'm glad you write these down because John needs to know how smart and funny he is when he gets older.
So adorable! I agree with merimoo 'cause it will laugh, cry, but mostly be grateful for a mom who recorded these comments!! Makes me want to start jotting everything Ryan says, he has a laughing so hard at times...it balances out the times we want to pull ours(and his) hair out;)
