Do turtles have small brains......

I was having devotional with the boys this morning and we were talking about faith and believing in things even if we can't see them etc......we were talking about things like the wind and AIR as examples and suddenly Zahn says........

Z: Do you know that i have special eyes because like um my brain is like a turtle brain (said very seriously with classic facial expressions).....

R: but Zahn, turtles only have tiny brains and they hardly know anything

M: (looking at Rylan) Really?? Is that true??

R: yeeaah (word slightly elongated - said with complete confidence)

Z: well....I know.....it's just weird....but because I can see like air all the time........

(eye brows then raised like, 'what is he talking about'.......then we all crack up laughing....)

Now i realise that story "re-tells" never really do justice to the expression and animation of a child (or situation) but this one had Rylan and I laughing for ages.....we love zahns 'crazy' comments that often don't make any sense at all.....but said in such a way that he 'sounds like' he knows exactly what he's talking about.......so so funny!!! and just for the record i'm not sure about the 'turtle brain' thing.....i'll get back to you on that one!!!
