This morning Lincoln was setting out some new ant traps around the house. I told the kids to go into the bathroom to take a look at one so that they would know what they look like.
Lincoln: See this with the picture of the ant on it? Don't ever, EVER, touch it.
Jake: Why not?
Lincoln: Because you'll die.
Jake: Why?
Me: Because it's poison.
Jake: Why can Daddy touch it?
Me: Because Daddies have special anti-poison powers.
Jake: No they don't! You're kidding.
Lincoln (dryly): No, it's because Daddies are apparently expendable.
