Momma.... What`s that smell?

Okay so I`ve written about myself... .and Aston. To some it would look like that`s all the members there are in this family so far. Just wait, soon I`ll be writing so much about everyone, you all will be avoiding even coming in here to read.

Anyways, back to Aston and his odd question. Now some kids ask why all the time, some kids ask what`s this & what`s that? And as the parents give much thought as to how to explain and then start describing in detail what the child has asked about the¸child sneaks away cause they really just wanted a simple answer and now Dad is explain Quantum Physics.

Or you didn`t really see what they were looking at and now your explaining storm systems and cumulus clouds, and really the child just wanted to know what that hot air balloon was all about.

Or maybe even the child when passing a jack hammer says, what`s that noise? Well that is easy enough to answer too.

But not my son.

My dear, sweet, redheaded son Aston asks the oddest question ALL the time..... `Momma...... what`s that smell?`

Okay... smell.... so immediately I stick my nose up in the air, and start sniffing like a bloodhound on the trail of a fugitive. Of course, being an adult I smell many things, and I`m trying to distinct which smell he is talking about. You might think this is an easy answer. But honestly I`m telling you, it`s not!

What`s that? When pointing to something... easy! What`s that noise? Pipe up my ears and I start listening.

But seriously... what`s that smell?!?! I am pretty in tune with my 5 senses, but this child is challenging me to a sense-off, or scent-off! LOL

Geeze freakin louise! So let all make wagers on how many times I get the `Momma... what`s that smell?`game right?

Uh yeah, not very often!

Oh Stan-the-man... how you challenge me in odd ways :)
