Sebastian is our fourteen-year-old son 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. 

Me: “Who was the first person to step foot on the moon?”

Seba: “Ummmm, Neil Armstrong!”

Me: “Strong work.”

Seba: “I see what you did there.”

Me: “Who was the first person to fly across the Atlantic solo?”

Seba: “Columbus.”

Me: “You can’t be serious. The first person to fly across the Atlantic.”

Seba: “Oh, the brothers.”

Me: “Oh my god.”

Seba: “What? Amelia Earhart?”

Me: “Ugh. Charles Lindburgh.”

Seba: “How was I supposed to know that?”

Me: “Read a book.”
