Sebastian is my eleven-year-old and he says some of the funniest things–we have no idea where he gets his material since his mother and I are rather boring, serious people. 

As I have mentioned many times in this spot, I quiz the boys on various topics often. Recently, they have started quizzing each other and on one such occasion I overheard the following:

Nathan: “What country’s capital is Berlin?”

Sebastian, without the slightest hesitation: “Singapore.”

Clearly, I have more work to do.
