Battlefield

William: did you know there are battlefields here?
Mom: .....?.....( whaaa?)
William: mom! I asked if you knew what a battlefield is!
Mom: ummmm... Yes. I knew that. What's a battlefield, William?
William: aaah, well it is a field. Yep, it is a field. A field where there was....battles.
Mom: oh?
William: yeah! Yeah. Like when the south versed the north in our country. The north and south versed each other on the battlefield.
Mom: huh. I didn't know you knew all that!

(Silence for two beats)

William: mom? Why are trees round? Why do trees grow crooked?
Mom: whaaa? Ummm...

I literally cannot keep up with his speed of thoughts.
