know it all

a conversation that evan and i have been having a lot lately goes something like this:
evan - did you know mom that.....fill in the blank.
me - well, evan, that isn't quite right.
evan - actually mom, i'm a scientist.


which has led me to believe that being a scientist means that evan knows everything and that he can claim that he knows everything. and he does....claim to, i mean.

for example, the other day our conversation went like this:


evan - mom i heard a stomp in your room and i think it was a monster.
me - monsters aren't real evan. don't worry, they are just pretend.
evan - actually mom, i am a scientist, remember? it was a monster.
(he actually does say the word actually...and i love it!)

maybe evan really does know everything. must be genetic.

That is so cute "Actually mom, I'm a scientist". Love it.

Haha! Lincoln is a scientist as well. He goes to Ecology Club at the university so he REALLY thinks he is a full fledged scientist. It makes for some VERY funny conversations.
