Philosophizing with a four-year-old

A couple weeks ago, Julia and I were in the car together on the way home from a Primary activity. At a stoplight, I looked over next to us and saw a heavy-set, long-haired man on a motorcycle, with a youngish girl on the back. I thought I'd pick her brain a little, so I said, "Julia, do you think Daddy should get a motorcycle like that?" She thought for a minute, then said, "No, 'cause then Daddy would have to change. He'd have to look like that guy." I asked her, "and would Mommy have to look like that girl?"

Pause. More thinking...

"Yeah. And you'd have to not have any kids."

I love four-year-old logic.
