So, Carter's recent obsession is with the show Dirty Jobs on Discovery. Somehow, (and yes, we realize that we control what a 4 year old watches) we have ended up in the position of having to watch Mike Rowe handle cod sperm while eating our dinner. Not to mention the fact that he uses the word "sperm" at least a dozen times and we are WAITING for Carter to ask some big questions. Perhaps it's SO far over his head, he doesn't even know where to begin with the questions (so maybe we are safe for a while). He did want to know if I could have another baby after he saw a calf being born on the dairy farm episode (which happens to be the dairy farm that we visited this past April).
If, by some chance, you are unfamiliar with the show, check it out, it's truly entertaining in a sometimes turn-your-stomach kind of way. Not every episode has Mike inseminating a cow or turkey, or pulling slim off eels, but there is something to be learned about how they mine salt or generate thermal energy from the ground. O.k., maybe it's not American Idol, but a little time spent watching something somewhat educational isn't always a bad thing.
