Cooper, just out of school, runs into my office and slaps two tiny seeds on the desk.
“Look Dad! I found two chucka-nuts!”
James: “What are chucka-nuts?”
Cooper: “Those are chucka-nuts.”
James: “Where did they come from?”
Cooper: “A chucka-nut tree.”
James: “Oh. What do you do with them?”
Cooper: “What do you mean?”
James: “If I planted them, what would grow?”
Cooper: (becoming impatient), “A chucka-nut tree.”
James: “What’s a chucka-nut tree?”
Cooper: (obviously exasperated - speaking slowly as to a small child)“A – tree – that – grows - chucka-nuts.”
