Conversations are getting better

I had this conversation with Justin in the car on the way to Grandpa Scott's.

Justin: "Mom, why are there roads?"
Mom: "We have roads so that we can drive in the car and get to the places we want to go."
Justin: "But why?"
Mom: "If there weren't any roads how would we get to Grandpa's house?"
Justin: "We could drive on the grass."
Mom: "We would break all the sprinklers if we drove on the grass."
Justin: "Well, if they would just make the sidewalks bigger then we could drive on them."
Mom: "How would we make the sidewalks bigger?"
Justin: "With a double drum compactor."

I just smiled and laughed and thought his Grandpa Scott would be proud.
